Abstract
Our project was born out of the need to preserve the environment and the possibility of contributing to minimizing the consequences and negative effects of environmental pollution. Therefore, it focuses on encouraging a conviction within the communities, so that they are clear and present how essential the protection of natural resources is for human subsistence. This is how 'MedioApp' was created, it is an interactive interface with different option boxes: the first one provides educational and dynamic information, causes, consequences, effects; the second provides tips and specific recommendations to start a lifestyle full of actions that are friendly to the planet; the third contains those actions, which can be done from home, with their respective effect; the fourth contains minigames; the fifth allows you to create a Spotify 'Playlist time' to listen to in the bathroom in order to save water; and finally, you will find ecological kits: bamboo toothbrush, ecological bags, books, etc., in exchange for donations. All these sections will be measured through a percentage that indicates whether or not you are making a change.
