The project is cross-agency. One example being developed is the EPA Saves Your Skin mobile phone app, providing ZIP code-based UV index information to help the public take action to protect their skin. Another example of a mobile app is the Air Quality Index (AQI) which feeds air quality information based on zip code.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eGreen Product Information:\u003c/strong\u003e This is an agency-wide strategy to provide a one-stop source of information to consumers to help them consider the impacts of products when making purchases (e.g., energy efficiency, water conservation, chemical exposure, sustainable design). In response to public input during the development of this plan, EPA is developing an Internet portal that consolidates the various agency product information websites into one website. Future efforts may include ways to deliver such information through mobile channels, either by EPA providing data that others can incorporate into mobile applications, or direct EPA effort such as text messages or Smartphone applications.\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003c/blockquote\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eIf you want to participate in EPA’s mobile product efforts, \u003ca href=\"http://www2.epa.gov/open/epa-mobile-applications-apps-empower-citizens-environmental-decisions\"\u003ethe full post has information on how to get involved.\u003c/a\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eThe full selection of government mobile products can be downloaded 24/7 by visiting the \u003ca href=\"http://apps.usa.gov/\"\u003eUSA.gov Apps Gallery\u003c/a\u003e.\u003c/em\u003e\u003c/p\u003e\n"}
