A transformed, responsible community can yield greater returns than the most sophisticated engineering solutions. ENERACTIVE’S Energy Awareness Program transforms organizations, fostering an environment of social responsibility and building a culture of effective actions for sustainability. The higher education sector has perhaps the greatest level of possibility when looking at developing a culture for sustainability…but how to best reach that segment.
Walk through a college dorm and you’ll undoubtedly see rooms with lights, stereos, appliances, and computers humming away. The problem: no one’s in the room. Poor energy habits among students cost colleges millions annually and tax their carbon footprints. In an effort to supplement energy awareness programs, ENERACTIVITY has developed an innovative program to reach students with this vital message.
The College Dorm Game was designed to entertain while promoting good energy habits. Competing to move up the leaderboard, students learn about energy use and develop the desirable habit of turning things off. They can do it. They just need a little something to put the thought in their head.
The game environment is a cartoon dorm room, complete with dirty laundry, unmade bed, scattered remnants of last night’s pizza party, and a host of energy wasting items. The player reduces the room’s energy consumption by turning things off, adjusting settings, or destroying objects before time runs out. Found objects like energy-saving bulbs add bonus points. Hidden slices of pizza add extra time. “Implements of destruction” add to the fun by enabling the player to destroy particularly wasteful objects.
