'EcoSnoop is meant as a tool for a gentle form of awareness,' says the creators of this iPhone app. But really, it's a way to vent, and get justice, for all those environmental slip-ups you pass during the day. How many times are you in a public space or an office building and see things that are just not cool - dripping faucets that have been running for three days, a suspicious use of a chemical, a trash bin filled with recyclable items yet there's no option for sorting out recyclables or compostables... - and you want to speak up, report it, or suggest alternatives but you have no idea how. Well, that's what your phone is for...but not to pick up and call someone. No, now there's EcoSnoop.

EcoSnoop is a social networking app for greenies who are mad as hell and won't take it anymore. Or at least, who see something that's questionable and want some advice or input about how to remedy it.

When you see an environmental no-no, take out your iPhone and snap a picture. Your phone's GPS will geotag the photo, and you can upload it to the EcoSnoop website along with comments or suggestions. Fellow EcoSnoopers can add in their input..

How about taking action against idling cars? Love it.
