In early August 2026, a roundup of five French and European applications for measuring personal carbon footprints was released, highlighting tools such as Nos Gestes Climat, Carbo, We Act For Good, Impact CO2 and Greenly. These apps, free or freemium, cover housing, transport, food and goods, and add features like real‑time ticket scanning, gamified challenges and detailed dashboards. At the same time, the French weather association Infoclimat introduced a new climate‑data platform that merges historic Météo‑France records with advanced forecasting models, extending coverage to France’s overseas departments. A follow‑up report a few days later detailed the platform’s technical setup on five powerful servers, its reference data tool for contextualising weather events, and a public fundraising appeal offering a tax reduction for donors. The evolution shows an initial broad announcement of both carbon‑footprint tools and the data platform, followed by a deeper focus on Infoclimat’s forecasting service and its financing model. ## Timeline ### 2026-08-07: Infoclimat launches new forecasting platform and seeks public support Infoclimat unveiled a new forecasting platform and a historical weather data tool, urging public donations to fund the service. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/infoclimat-launches-new-forecasting-platform-and-seeks-public-support ### 2026-08-03: French carbon‑footprint apps and climate data platform highlighted A roundup of five French/European carbon‑footprint apps and the launch of Infoclimat’s new climate data platform, both aimed at helping users track and reduce emissions. 2 sources. https://clstr.news/cluster/french-carbonfootprint-apps-and-climate-data-platform-highlighted --- Cite as: French climate data platform and carbon‑footprint apps.
