Use cases

Gaming the system to fight climate change

"When city staff at London, Ontario were directed by thCity Council to build a Climate Emergency Action Plan, they knew that public input would be key to creating something the community could get on board with. However, convincing folks to engage around an issue as complex and polarising as the climate emergency is not an easy task. To maximise participation, London and Ethelo came up with a simple strategy: turn the engagement into a game."
