We believe that to show our initiative, a good option is to show it in a didactic way and in a place where everyone can meet and support the global challenges that exist to achieve a single objective ... Win against global warming.

We chose to use the CAPTCHA method thanks to the important functionality that it fulfills in web and mobile projects, through this dissemination instrument we want to make known and support in an easy and fast way the initiatives that drive the reduction of greenhouse gases, decrease of the melting of glaciers, counteract droughts and reforestation, in order to increase the green lung of the planet and combat the consequences of global climate change, In a simple way, a puzzle game with images taken from the NASA Database that demonstrate and make you aware of the current climate consequences.
