Final Year Project
Project Title
Immersive AR Application as a Tool for Climate Action
Description
We strive to make the intangible a bit more tangible through augmented reality and help users take immediate actions that could be taken to prevent a catastrophic climate change effect. Our focus is on raising awareness about reducing carbon emissions, to help with the goal of nearly halving human-caused CO2 emissions by 2030. Our project focuses on encouraging plantations as trees have a huge potential to slow down the rate of global warming by absorbing tremendous amounts of CO2. Through our application we want to urge users to plant trees, and bring awareness around how huge efforts in forestation could help mitigate the effects of climate change.
