US Patent 11872891 Modification of transport functionality based on carbon footprint

To encourage users to improve their carbon footprint, a transport may be provided with an enhanced operating manner in response to external events that lower the carbon footprint of one or more occupants of the transport. Events, such as lowering the energy consumption of a person's home dwelling, may be communicated to the transport and trigger an enhanced mode in the transport, such as an enhanced driving mode (e.g. sport mode) or an enhanced charging mode.
