Clim City, a game about global warming

Clim 'City, an eco-citizen game to fight against greenhouse gases

"Clim 'City", a free eco-citizen game offered online by a Bordeaux scientific association, allows Internet users to tackle a seemingly impossible and yet terribly real puzzle: dividing our greenhouse gas emissions by four ( GES) in 50 years.

"Clim 'City" is a bit of an ecological version of the famous "Sim City" where the player builds and then manages his city from virgin territory.

Here, the agglomeration exists, with its buildings, its station, its hotels, its port, its hospital, its campus, its stadium, its thermal and nuclear power plants and even its ski resort. The player must try to reduce the energy consumption and GHG emissions of the inhabitants and economic activities of this virtual region, whose statistics are those of a typical French agglomeration of 115.000 inhabitants.

The "eco-citizen" Internet user has a panoply of 250 possible actions for this, some of a behavioral nature (creating a citizen association, developing training in eco-driving), others with a direct impact, in the short, medium or long term (insulation of homes, electric motors).

"The objective is that of industrialized countries: the factor 4, that is to say to divide by four by 2050 greenhouse gas emissions in France", explains Eric Gorman, scriptwriter of the game for Cap Sciences, regional animation and exhibition center based in Bordeaux.

The site of the scientific association (which seems to me very interesting): http://www.cap-sciences.net/

ps: the link of the game to the air in cabbages ... surely the ransom of success! Should try again later ...

Hey yes I fear that the policy of "all CO2" takes too much importance ...

The game I still could not test and at home it works?
