Biosphere 2020

In the years to come the world slowly begins to choke from its own pollution. The Government needs to take drastic action and Department H.A.V.E.N is created to select the 10 towns that will qualify for biospheres to protect them for the future. You are members of the field investigations team for H.A.V.E.N. Your mission: to undertake a comprehensive comparative evaluation of a town, assess its infrastructure, history and future potential and using cutting edge technology, compile and transmit your coded report back to HQ.

Biosphere 2020 is calibrated according to ability so that children of all capabilities can work through at their own pace to complete the course.
