Ever wondered how many litres of water it takes to make a beer or why a burping cow contributes to climate change?
Wonder no longer thanks to the Eco Innovators Sustainability Quiz for iPods, iPhones and iPads
The Eco Innovators app is a mythbusting quiz style game designed to test your general environmental knowledge. Navigate your way through 3 rounds of multiple choice questions covering a range of topic areas
But wait there’s more! This is a game-within-a-game. After each round a mini-game is unlocked giving you the opportunity to collect as many items as you can and score extra points before time runs out! This will help you become an Eco Innovators Champion!
With 50 multiple choice questions covering a range of topics from eco footprints through to plastic bags and methane production, you will be able to test your knowledge, find out all the facts on how to make better environmental decisions, and arm yourself with some fantastic dinner party conversation!
Director of Eco Innovators, Leyla Acaroglu explains;
“we developed this app because there are a lot of myths about what makes something ‘sustainable’ or not, and we really wanted to challenge people’s perceptions of how the design and consumption of everyday things impacts on the environment… it’s also about providing complex information in a fun format”.
She hopes that this app will inspire designers and product developers to uptake eco‐design, and consumers to be more conscious of the things that they buy.
The questions in this app have been drawn from the best practice scientific process of life cycle assessment (LCA). All the facts have been sourced from reliable sources, with full references, as well as links to further reading provided.
This is a ‘down time’ game, played on the tram or whilst waiting for a coffee –the questions challenge and engage the player with general environmental knowledge. Hopefully it will get people to think twice about the things that they consume and discard.
The app will be free to download until the end of April from iTunes
