Planethours 🌎

Looks like a useful effort to remind us that, in addition to being in the midst of a global pandemic, the health of the planet itself continues to be of grave concern. This site uses a simple quiz to help put into perspective your own contribution to the end of the planet, with some suggestions on how to adjust your behavior to lower your impact.

Huge thanks to @chrismessina for the hunt! WHY is Planthours needed? In order to face the climate change, a bottom-up behavioral revolution is needed as much as top-down regulations changes, and both paths can only be pursued by embracing a common, shared, raised awareness -> Planethours aims to provide such awareness in a easy and accessible way!

This is amazing. We need more stuff like this in order to save our planet.

It was after a thorough research on the scientific literature that we realised that very few actions could have a very big impact on the future of our planet. To be exact, we identified 8 major areas where anyone could individually act. The tool will simply help you understanding in which of these areas you could do better, provide recommendations and an estimation in years about by how long each individual action could delay the 2C tipping point.

A very interesting and nicely made help to understand your impact n climate change! An absolute must!

Very well designed website and quiz. It's answered within less than two minutes and yields very clear advice on how to to tweak daily live towards more sustainability. Apparently I still have some wiggling room in my chicken consumption ;)

Oh boy that's a useful reminder indeed. One suggestion that I think would make the test results even more memorable/impactful: don't show a green planet with birds flying if the results are not good, show a visual (planet?) of something that illustrates the gravity of the situation.
