Consumer Consequences, the Online Eco-Game


Treehugger.com brought my attention to this resource, Consumer Consequences, an online game that calculates your overall ecological footprint designed by American Public Media. Create your own character, then face a series of questionis about lifestyle, buying habits and transportation choices while background graphics reflecting your in-game "world" of waste and consumption slides across the screen.

Consumer Consequences gives interesting snippets of information, tailored to your state and lifestyle, along the way and allows you to compare your score with others within your demographic. Even better, it offers suggestions on how to improve your lifestyle if you receive a less than perfect score.

Also, check out the treehugger article for an in-depth review.
