High-Level Project Summary
There seems to be an increasing interest with people who want to save the environment. They feel the need to understand what type of energy sources they are using . If they'd bought an electric car, they would want to know whether the energy source they're using in renewable or non-renewable. Therefore, my app, "Renewable Only," can inform the people of what energy source they have been provided, based on their location. This app will connect to Nasa's database for information.

Detailed Project Description
The app, "Renewable Only," provides information of the energy people are using. If a person wants to know which type of energy they should use, the app can recommend , based on their location.
For example: A person can enter their zipcode into the app, and the app can look up the NASA database using an API, that provides a list of renewable energy resources, for the zipcode. The person can then choose the right energy sources.
