Description
Climate Challenge is an online educational game designed by the BBC. The focus of the game is climate change, which is a major cause for concern for world nations. The game’s tag line is “Earth’s future is in your hands”, which gives students a sense of responsibility and makes them aware of their role. The game includes details from real-life studies wherever possible but is not necessarily an accurate prediction of how the climate is going to change. Nevertheless, it is a great online game that introduces young adults to the hottest topic among environmental scientists: climate change and why it is bad.

Procedure on how to put in practice
The player must do the role of the president of the European Union and figure out ways to deal with catastrophic events that are threatening the global climate.
The game has policy cards which are taken from real policies for minimizing carbon dioxide emissions. The statistics used in the game are also taken from actual records.
While tackling the man-made and natural disasters that may or may not affect the climate, the player should also implement or change policies to stay popular among the nations and citizens.
The game is challenging in the sense that the player must strike a balance between doing what is good for the environment and also addressing the voter’s needs.
