Integration with TooGoodToGo #71

Closed martincollignon closed 4 years ago

martincollignon commented 5 years ago

WHY Food waste is one of the biggest CO2 drivers - TGTG has over 11M users across 12 EU countries (most probably environmentally conscious). They advertise that "saving" a meal saves CO2 (2.5kg is used). I believe the integration would be interesting given user base, brand, and impact. Not sure how to quantify the benefit / CO2 impact.

HOW Apps available on https://toogoodtogo.com/en and in app stores

I don't know if it's any help, but I found a basic client using the API: https://github.com/johannesfritsch/tgtg_client

That's super helpful! Could you give it a go?

We will also need to do a CO2 model for that. I think they quantify 2.5kg CO2 savings/meal, but I don't believe many things you purchase can "substract" CO2 from your accounting.

I don't really know JS and currently have little time. I might try it later though if nobody else takes it. So if you or anyone else wants to have a go, please do so! :)

One caveat: in the app we do carbon accounting and not savings. Those are two different things and those two numbers can't be mixed (let's discuss on Slack if it's not clear). If we want to integrate TGTG, it would mean that we should estimate the carbon footprint of a TGTG meal, based on where you pick it from.
