Play Oxfam's new online interactive game: The Climate Challenge

For the past few months, we’ve been beavering away, working on a project with some famous campaigners, celebrities and well-known bloggers.

Well, we’re proud to say that it’s now time to ditch the old name and officially launch (under its proper name) The Climate Challenge – our brand-new, interactive quiz about climate change.

The idea is a straightforward one. You log on, and – with some celebrity assistance from the likes of David Tennant, Miranda Richardson and Gael Garcia Bernal – navigate your way through six different sets of questions.

The Challenge is crammed full of interesting facts and statistics.  A couple of notable ones that I picked up when I played are that ‘China builds an average of 12 wind turbines every day’, and the rather terrifying fact that ‘230 million people already suffer illness because of the effects of climate change’ (with the causes being things like prolonged flooding and rises in sea levels).

Try your luck and play the game. And, when you’ve had a go, use the Facebook link that’s embedded into the game to challenge your friends to try and beat your score.

(A special thanks to all the team at Monterosa Productions and Everybody’s Content for their technological wizardry and tireless work on the development of the game. And also to Adobe, who have funded the mobile version of the quiz).

Climate Change - Play the Game but remember why..

I saw this on the Marketing site Bland Replubric - http://www.brandrepublic.com/News/967512/Oxfam-recruits-celebrities-climate-change-game/Whilst offering games is fun and possibly educational it is still essential to focus on what Oxfam are doing to help those already sufering the effects of climate change
