Project Description:
Stop Global Warming seeks to create a virtual "March On Washington" around global warming issues. The site explores global warming and its effect on the environment and social communities by providing concise information on its causes and direct consequences on environmental destruction, weather changes, and public health.
The website also allows visitors to join the "virtual march" and start implementing change on an individual level. By offering simple action tips, which range from repairing plumbing leaks to recycling and transportation, Stop Global Warming makes global change easy to adopt.
Points of interest:
Stop Global Warming is another reminder that environmental action is no longer for the streets only. It harnesses the social nature of the Web to educate and catalyze action. The simple user interface and quick action tips makes the concept even more accessible to everyone.
