Supercomputers and the data centres they live in have an impact on the environment, and it is important for these centres to work to reduce this impact. Choices on cooling methods, data centre location, energy sources, and more, all affect the environmental impact of running these systems and data centres.

Our interactive game will place you as the decision maker of a data centre on your own island, currently battling impacts of climate change, industrialisation and mining. By balancing your environmental costs, scientific outputs, benefits to society and your finances, can you restore your island to the lush, green paradise full of wildlife it once was?

Designed to be played on any web-enabled device, we will have tablets available to play a short version of this game at our stand. Come along and see if where you can place on our leader board!

A link to an online version of the game will be available here soon.
