Air pollution is a burning issue in the present world. Various air borne diseases are spreading faster causing global pandemic and serious health issues. The level of carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide, methane, and other harmful and greenhouse gases are rapidly increasing causing health hazards, biodiversity hazards, ozone layer depletion and global warming.

The problematic particles, called fine particulate matter (PM2.5), are 2.5 micrometres or less in diameter, about a tenth the fraction of human hair. These small particles can get past the body’s normal defences and penetrate deep into the lungs.

The map, which shows the average PM2.5 results between 2001 and 2006.The map shows very high levels of PM2.5 in a broad swath stretching from the Saharan Desert in Northern Africa to Eastern Asia. When compared with maps of population density, it suggests more than 80 percent of the world's population breathe polluted air that exceeds the World Health Organization's recommended level of 10 micrograms per cubic meter.

The chart shows the increasing level of CO2 . In the past 13 years, the concentration of CO2 has increased from 380ppm to 414ppm.

Also the Global temperature has increased by about 2 degree Fahrenheit in the past 170 years.

What we developed

We developed a plan for a game. The basic principle is that this game is played by all age group. While younger generations play this game for entertainment purposes but actually it allows us to convey the idea of how sustainability works and its impact on the grass-root level. The older generation is targeted as an individual who has a vague idea of this but is not provided with a tool.

What it does

This game allows the older generation to have a concrete idea about the impacts which are caused due to their inaction. The gameplay in this app conjunctly implead and encourages people of all level to maintain the collective approach to solve the issues while sustaining the environment. A group of community or village or city has to live for a period of time while sustaining. For those different tasks has to be completed .for example :to plant a tree increases your chance of being alive .The more people there are alive at the end of the day also while the minimum environment is used .

How it works

The game closely incorporates the real-world data and the real-time time which ultimately makes the game play environment.

The level of the game will be categorized as the level of air pollution. More the pollution in a certain area, harder the level for users. To complete the level, users have to control the air pollution by identifying the sources of air pollution and take actions against it. The users will have to plant trees, control forest fires, install air filters to filter smoke in the industries and vehicles, etc. And once the pollution level is controlled or falls under the safe level, the user passes the level and can move to the next level choosing different cities or places. When the pollution level is high in a certain area, the players will get different health level problems.

What we hope to achieve

We hope..

-To encourage both younger and older generation to participate in creating a sustained world.

-To make contribution in making clean atmosphere.

-To convey the idea that sustainable environment can be achieved with a little effort and fun way.

-To plant an idea and make the world little better than we found it.
