While the world is worrying about the BP oil spill and the damage control to be undertaken, Greenopolis is bringing environment friendliness to the social media with Oceanopolis. The app / game is designed for Facebook and will be launched in beta before making a full release in the next month or so.
From the description, the game is simple enough as it gauges how environment friendly you are by giving you charge of an island, you are supposed to recycle waste on the island and create a community that doesn’t harm the environment. This can be made possible by interacting with your connections and earning virtual points, which can be printed to be used as tickets for movie theatres, stores, etc. Before I head further, isn’t printing on paper being environment unfriendly? Other than that, you can also earn the points by simply blogging at Greenopolis, a social network that initiated operations two years back, with its main objective of being a socializing site for the environment lovers. But I guess furthering the idea and bringing out a Facebook game is definitely a positive move, especially for the fact that they are rewarding their users.
You can access the application here and be ready to become a part of a bit more sensible app/game. Come on, it is a bit better than Farmville and Mafia Wars, given you might actually develop habits to take care of waste appropriately and earn rewards from Greenopolis as well.
