Gaya is fragile.

We came across a mind boggling app called “Fragile Earth” which helps raise awareness towards the effects of changes in climate, urbanization, among other factors. It reveals this through shocking images of how our earth is changing over time. It reveals before and after images such as droughts, disappearing lakes and the effects of deforestation as a result of these factors. The app covers six sections: Natural Phenomena, Warming World, Water’s Power, Deserts and Drought, Man’s Impact and Wild Weather.

This is a clear example of how environmentalists have evolved their methods technologically through the use of apps to generate a higher level of reach among consumers to raise awareness as well as to hopefully impact their behavior, though there isn't much evidence to substantiate the second claim.

 

P.S. You can share the site’s images and reasons behind these effects via the app, Facebook or twitter. You can have access to this app for a mere $ 2.99.
