Cool Stuff:
Environment
With the growing concern over environmental issues, it is no surprise that they are the focus of many interactive reports.


PublicRadio.org - Consumer Consequences

As part of its Sustainability series, PublicRadio.org asks, "What would the world look like if everyone lived like me?" By answering questions ranging from your electricity use, trash disposal, transportation, diet and shopping habits, this game tells you how many Earths we would need if everyone on the planet lived like you.


WWF - Climate Witness

The World Wildlife Fund for Nature created this interactive map and participatory site where "climate witnesses" are invited to share their stories of their experiences with global warming. A picture of each contributer is placed on a clickable world map, from which users can navigate to the witness stories.
