Climate Machine is an educational online computer game for school children aged 13-16.

In the game you get a holiday job as a replacement for Puffy. He usually manages the Climate Machinery. Puffy is going on a romantic trip around the world with his girlfriend Shiny.

In the beginning the Climate Machine is able to control the weather by itself. But on the way to Spain Puffy and Shiny must visit Shiny’s mother. Shiny mother would like to invite guests for a BBQ in the garden. But it is autumn and the weather is cold and windy. So Shiny makes Puffy sent a text message so that you can operate the Climate Machine to make a little summer heat in Shiny’s mums garden. Now starts the trouble...

You cannot simple make it sunnier without changing the climate somewhere else. So people start calling from all over the world because their weather is acting strangely - and you have to change it! Now starts a domino effect of climate change. Once you correct the weather in Spain it changes in Morocco etc.

You control the Climate Machine by changing climate parameters such as the sunlight and albedo. The outcome is change in local weather.
