Like its name implies, this category challenges developers to help save the planet with innovative, eco-friendly applications for use on Nokia devices. Do you have an app that will help individuals reduce their personal carbon footprint? Or perhaps help people to make environmentally sound decisions in their daily lives? Then this is the category for you.

For inspiration, consider the Green Explorer Widget, created by Nokia and available in Ovi Store now. This app is an Internet tool for learning and sharing tips about maintaining an eco-friendly lifestyle. Or consider Climate Mission, a game created by Nokia that features ecologically themed puzzles, where individuals can test their wits while learning more about climate change at the same time.

You can also get inspiration from the mobile eco ideas submitted by people all over the world via a fun storyboard widget.
