School administrators
Set up the school on ChonX, invite staff and students, and follow progress towards Net Zero.
The Net Zero app for schools
Turn everyday eco-actions into measured progress.
ChonX helps students act, teachers and sustainability champions verify, and school leaders see how far the school has come on its way to Net Zero.
ChonX is a mobile app adopted by schools. Schools can use it together with the Climate Action Toolkit, or choose either on its own. Students can join only with an invitation or access code from their school’s ChonX administrator. Is your school already using it? Get the app on the App Store or Google Play.

ChonX
The app that records and measures what happens next.
The Climate Action Toolkit and ChonX were launched at the 1.5 Matters UAE–India Sustainable Schools Leadership Forum at Abu Dhabi School of Management, attended by representatives of the Environment Agency – Abu Dhabi. Schools are now using the Toolkit, either with the ChonX app or as a standalone resource, and it is available to any school that requests it. ChonX was also presented at the 9th 1M1B Impact Summit at the United Nations in Geneva.

What people say
From partners in climate action and the Net Zero Schools model.
“Every year I meet many students who want to protect the planet. Very few ask how anyone would know whether they had succeeded. Hrithik asked that question early in his time with us, and he has since built a tool that answers it.”
Founder, 1M1B (One Million for One Billion)
“Recognition for climate action is only credible when every claim can be checked, so Hrithik built ChonX so that each logged action is verified before it earns XP and each record is kept for later audit.”
Founder, 1M1B (One Million for One Billion)
“When he speaks about sustainability, students and professionals alike take him seriously, because he knows the numbers behind what he is saying.”
Founder & CEO, GreenCar.ngo
“Hrithik spent the following weeks with students and teachers, noting where they stopped using the app and what brought them back, and rebuilt it around what he saw. After the rebuild, students kept coming back.”
Founder, 1M1B (One Million for One Billion)
“The Climate Action Toolkit gives schools a clear, practical way to turn commitment into measurable action. It is encouraging to see a student design something this usable.”
Senior Advisor, Environment Agency – Abu Dhabi; keynote speaker, UAE–India Sustainable Schools Leadership Forum
“Measurement is where most climate efforts fall short. Hrithik’s toolkit and ChonX make carbon-reduction work in schools visible and verifiable, which is exactly what credible climate action needs.”
Business Development Director, Water Carbon Solutions (WCS), Masdar City, Abu Dhabi
“Hrithik built something schools can actually use: a way to plan climate action, track it and show what changed. That practical focus, from a student, is why we chose to support the forum.”
Strategic Advisor, MasterMindz Management Advisory; sponsor, UAE–India Sustainable Schools Leadership Forum
Request a pilot or the toolkit
Tell us about your school and what you would like. We can arrange a ChonX pilot, share the Climate Action Toolkit, or both. Schools can use the app and the Toolkit together, or either on its own.
What’s coming
More advancements are on the way, including deeper AI support and ways for schools to connect ChonX to their own systems. They build on OrzyneX research into carbon-footprint measurement.
