Cleanfox is looking to clean out your inbox in the name of waste management
A new app is calling on people to delete unwanted newsletters and emails while simultaneously helping to save to the planet.
Paris-based Cleanfox is a free app that allows users to delete and unsubscribe from unwanted emails in order to reduce their carbon footprint.
Developed by FoxIntelligence, a firm which computes anonymised data found in mailboxes, Cleanfox is a Tech For Good app that aims to reduce the amount of electricity caused by the generation and storage of spam and unwanted emails.
According to the service, an email is on average responsible for the emission of 10 grams of Co2 per year, and if the Internet were a country, it would be the sixth biggest electricity consumer in the world.
According to Cleanfox, it has 1.5 million users worldwide, has deleted 700 million emails, and avoided the emission of more than 7,000 tons of Co2, which is the equivalent of 1.4 million trees saved so far.
Cleanfox currently supports almost all major email providers and can be downloaded in iPhone and android formats.

Welcome to Launch Marketing Council’s new 3-part series focused on unlocking the secrets of launching brands, products and service by exploring real-life examples from Australia’s marketing elite, in conjunction with the independent agency Five by Five Global.
In early 2020, I had the pleasure of staying at the newly opened Fullerton Hotel in Sydney. It was on this trip I first became aware of the Fullerton’s commitment to brand storytelling.
If you’ve been around advertising long enough, you’ve probably seen (or written) a slide which says: “They won’t remember what you say, they’ll remember how you made them feel.” But it’s wrong. Our understanding of how emotion is used in advertising has been ill informed and poorly applied.
The launch of a new brand, or indeed a rebrand, is a transformation to be greeted with fanfare. So why is it that once the brand has launched, the brand execution phase can also be the moment at which you kill its creativity?
Algorithms that can make sense of unstructured data is the future. It's great to see experts in the field getting together to discuss AI.
