An app to encourage practical environmentalism.
Mechanics - Each day the app suggests a practical way in which you can live a more environmentally friendly way of living. Nothing too outlandish. Definately do-able. You can click on a link to a website that shows you why that act is important. It’s a challenge. Do it, mark as done, and then gain points.

Good for kids.
