You are “The Green Generation.” Yes, we’re speaking to you, GenZ. There are a lot of audiences we want to address at Tanbii. But, we need to start with out #1 stakeholder and #1 change maker.
So today, we’re going to dive deep into your critical role in environmental initiatives and demonstrate how your proactive engagement can help shape a sustainable future. Along the way, we’ll highlight how platforms like Tanbii empower you to contribute meaningfully to this mission.
Generation Z: The Green Generation
Born between the mid-to-late 1990s and the early 2010s, Generation Z, you’re often dubbed as the “Green Generation”. As the first truly global generation, you carry an inherent sense of interconnectedness. This realization, combined with your digital acumen, uniquely positions you to catalyze substantial change.
Climate change is more than a textbook concept for you. You’ve grown up amidst the harsh realities of this existential crisis, witnessing devastating impacts—intense hurricanes, lethal heatwaves, melting ice caps. These first-hand experiences have ignited a sense of urgency. According to a 2021 United Nations survey, climate change is the most vital issue for Gen Z, fueling your resolve to combat climate change.
The Power of Gen Z's Active Participation
Why is Gen Z’s active participation so pivotal? For starters, you represent over 30% of the global population, according to the UN Department of Economic and Social Affairs. This enormous number signifies a vast pool of potential influencers, innovators, and leaders capable of driving transformational change.
Your generation has consistently shown a deep commitment to sustainability, often identifying climate change as a top concern. This passion translates into tangible action. Amnesty International reports that Gen Z has been at the forefront of environmental protests, playing an instrumental role in propelling environmental progress.
As digital natives, you’ve also used technology and social media to amplify awareness, mobilize action, share eco-friendly practices, and hold entities accountable. Moreover, a Nielsen report reveals that your preference for experiences over possessions and your tendency towards socially conscious spending are reshaping market trends, nudging industries towards sustainable practices.
The Role of Tanbii in Empowering The Green Generation's Environmental Initiatives
Recognizing the immense potential that Gen Z holds for championing sustainability, platforms like Tanbii serve to nurture this endeavor.
Tanbii, our innovative mobile application, encourages and rewards eco-friendly behavior. It perfectly embodies the spirit of Gen Z, combining technology, gamification, and sustainability to create a potent tool for environmental action. It fits into the digital landscape of the “Green Generation” and aligns with your values.
At Tanbii, your everyday decisions—like biking instead of driving, recycling, or turning off unnecessary lights—are not just environmentally friendly actions, but opportunities to earn rewards. By tracking and calculating carbon reduction efforts, Tanbii makes sustainability a rewarding journey, literally and figuratively.
Moreover, Tanbii democratizes the carbon credits trading system, typically a realm dominated by corporations and governments. By making this process accessible and personal, Tanbii helps break down the complexities associated with carbon trading.
Gen Z's Journey with Tanbii: Success Stories
Embracing Tanbii’s platform, members of Gen Z have been trailblazers in their communities. Let’s take the example of Sofia R., a college sophomore from Boston. Sofia has been helping to beta test Tanbii for two months, she’s been actively reducing her carbon footprint by choosing to cycle to college, cutting down on meat, and consciously reducing energy usage in her apartment. By documenting and rewarding these efforts, Tanbii has enabled Sofia to make a tangible impact while also inspiring her peers.
Then there’s Alex, a college junior from southern California. He’s been utilizing Tanbii-beta to understand his consumption patterns better and make more sustainable choices. Inspired by his experience, Alex started an environmental club at his university to promote sustainable living, using Tanbii as a tool to motivate and engage his club members.
In Conclusion: It's Your Turn, Gen Z

Platforms like Tanbii can further amplify your impact, but remember, it’s your actions, choices, and relentless drive that make a real difference.
