Challenge
Global Warming is real and urgent, and it is imperative especially for a country like China to reduce air pollution and put a stop to the greenhouse effect. Over the past century, the average temperature has risen from 0.3 to 0.6 °C, and the sea level by 10-25 cm. The concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere since the Industrial Revolution has risen by almost 30%.

Solution
Our approach to energy conservation is simple but impactful: to clearly illustrate the meaning and significance of conservation to our most important constituents – the future generation.
To any child, a picture of an animal not only reflects the beauty and innocence of nature, but also life and hope. Our team has created an interactive sticker designed to illustrate the effects of energy conservation. The sticker would have the head and torso of an endangered species on each side of a light switch. When the switch is turned on, the animal’s neck would show up fractured, demonstrating to the child a more direct connection between our excessive waste of energy and its brutal impact on our natural world.
Through the stories told by these conservation stickers, we hope to make the next generation more aware of the consequences of their actions on the natural environment. -
