Basic description of the project: 30,000 hectares of forest fall everyday. To get Chinese youth involved, WWF developed a mobile application that lets you witness firsthand how wildlife struggles to cope outside its habitat.
Idea: Wildlife’s fate is in your hands.
1. ENGAGE VIRTUALLY. Point your phone anywhere a virtual bear interacts with your environment. It bumps into walls, trips over stairs, etc.
2. ENGAGE FOR REAL. Click one button to sign up with WWF, or to spread awareness to everyone in your SMS address book.
This campaign is a groundbreaking way to use mobile. It also simplifies how individuals can create real change.
