Description
The solutions to climate change start with us. Build green habits today.
We get it: climate change can feel overwhelming. We all know that we should be doing more to address the climate crisis, but with information scattered everywhere, it’s hard to know where to start, which sources to trust, and most importantly, if the changes we make as individuals will *actually* have an impact.
That’s where we come in! Meet One Small Step: your personal sustainability coach. Using behavioural science, the One Small Step app makes it easy, simple & fun to make sustainable changes. Gain clarity on the environmental impact of your personal choices. Get curated step-by-step programs that are designed to be easy & achievable. Build eco-friendly habits to quickly shrink your carbon footprint.

HOW ONE SMALL STEP HELPS YOU
Start by understanding the impact of your current lifestyle choices. Get a breakdown of your carbon footprint & see how you compare to the average Australian. You’ll receive a personalised sustainability roadmap to see how to reduce your carbon emissions down to the UN’s 2050 goal of 2 tonnes per year.
Instead of feeling overwhelmed by information, you’ll get step-by-step programs with trusted recommendations on sustainable products. For example, if your current superannuation fund invests in fossil fuels, we’ll recommend you a program to switch to a sustainable option. You’ll be guided every step of the way from comparing ethical funds, right through to making the switch & updating your employer with your fund details.
Stay motivated on your journey to net zero carbon emissions. Through our gamified programs and our habit tracking tool, you’ll build your confidence & skills to take control of your carbon footprint. Be rewarded for taking climate action & see your impact in real time. Our Teams feature helps you to achieve your sustainability goals & build your momentum by completing weekly challenges with your friends, family & workmates.
We tend to think that our individual choices don’t matter, but they do when we’re acting together. Our behaviour has a flow-on effect and will influence others to do the same. All it takes is One Small Step at a time.
AS FEATURED ON ABC NEWS ONLINE
"Making small changes doesn't require a lot of brain power but we tend to overthink things and worry they won't actually contribute to helping the big picture. In actual fact, those smaller actions can really build a sense of motivation and encourage people to be more mindful of what they're consuming and why."
“Our ultimate goal is to reduce the cognitive barriers that prevent people from sticking to green habits, something behavioural science research has only begun to understand in the past few years.”
ABOUT ONE SMALL STEP
Our mission is to help millions of people reduce their personal carbon footprints down to the UN’s 2050 goal of 2 tonnes of CO2e per person, per year.
The goal is to grow this community to 28 million members, the same number of users as FitBit. Even if our users only partially reduce their annual footprints by 6 tonnes each, together, that achieves the same carbon impact as closing down 40 coal-fired power stations.
It’s ambitious, and you can help achieve this. The more people who use the One Small Step app, the more insights we gain into how to more effectively support you to reduce your environmental impact. We’d love to get your feedback and input on what is working for you, and what isn’t in this version of the app. You can message us through Facebook, Instagram, Twitter or by emailing us at info@onesmallstepapp.com.
We regularly update the collective impact our users are having on our website. To learn more, head to: https://www.onesmallstepapp.com.

Ratings and Reviews
Honest to a Tee
This app truly makes me happy, from tips to planting trees it makes me excited to help. They provide links to sites to buy any necessary eco friendly products or tell you how to make them on your own. I’ll be moving out soon so I’ll try to do as much as I can for my own. I don’t think I can do everything it says, like switching banks. It sounds so appealing but I’m still getting assistance from my parents so its hard to switch. But I hope to make a difference no matter how small.
Not encouraging or practical
I was excited to download this app to find more ways to reduce my carbon footprint. I already do many things like compost, shop second hand, mostly walk vs drive, and eat vegan (I also live somewhere where I can’t control electric/gas/etc.). Slightly discouraged when my score for my carbon footprint was very high compared to other users, despite all the things I do to be eco-friendly, but I was eager for suggestions to lower this score. But I deleted the app when the first suggestion it made was to unplug my TV after every use. While I’m sure they’re correct that my TV does use unnecessary energy, it’s an extremely impractical suggestion, and I don’t think my plugged in TV is going to save the world compared to the huge corporations that should be held accountable. Not encouraging or practical at all. Maybe good for someone who needs more basic tips (compositing, how to shop second hand, eating plant based)?
Must have!
Helped me to find somewhere to start! The Climate crisis can be overwhelming especially if you feel stuck in a cycle of wanting to do your part but not taking the first step (app developers came up with the perfect name). Very manageable steps and explanations provided for everything! I’ve only had this app 1 day and I have learned so much!
