Bit like the first "Sim City" Wonder if there is an environmental version out. Be great for young players, to put the right ideas in their heads.

If a picture speaks a thousand words, a multimedia-packed, animation-filled interactive town must speak a million. Which is why on the Greenpeace UK website we've launched <A href="http://www.greenpeace.org.uk/efficiencity">EfficienCity</A> (like Sim City, but greener) to explain exactly what decentralised energy is and how it works in practice (which can otherwise be <A href="http://www.greenpeace.org.uk/efficiencity/about">a wordy business</A>).
</P></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://weblog.greenpeace.org/makingwaves/archives/2008/02/visit_efficiencity_a_clean_gre.html"><P>
If you believe our government, you'd think we need nuclear power and coal to stop climate change, but come and pay a visit to EfficienCity, which shows how pioneering, real world communities around the UK
are using decentralised energy. As a result, they're enjoying lower
greenhouse gas emissions, a more secure energy
supply, cheaper electricity and heating bills and a whole new attitude
towards
energy.

We've been working with the incredible team at <A href="http://www.birocreative.com">Biro Creative</A> to build the town and we're pretty chuffed with the result.</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://weblog.greenpeace.org/makingwaves/archives/2008/02/visit_efficiencity_a_clean_gre.html"><P>
Anyway, enough of the words - just go and <A href="http://www.greenpeace.org.uk/efficiencity">visit EfficienCity to discover a cleaner, greener energy future</A>. Enjoy.
