Wave
Take part in the cleaning of your beach
Why does this application exist ?
First of all, we have tried to brainstorm about the subject : "Improve ocean health and marine biodiversity.". We tried to be as exhaustive as possible and to think about all the aspects of this subject. That is how this project began
Here are our mindmaps :
With all members of the developing-team, we agreed on something : according to our previous experiences, to our observations and to our documentations, we do think that people are more and more keen on doing clean walks. It seems to be in tune with the times to do clean walks. Many exemples throw lights on the fact that students, middle-aged people or ageing people are willing to help environnment´s protection by doing clean walk. That is why an idea came to our mind.
We created an app which enables people to identify hotspots (in other words beaches that need to be cleaned) and to organize clean walks with other people. There are good reasons to think that this app will be used : as we said, it is more and more liked to do clean walks. Furthermore, we do think that it could be even more spread if people had friends/colleagues to do it with. This app would enable it. Finally, all of us are aware of the emergency when it comes to protecting marine biodiversity so this app is very useful at the outset of the 21th centuary.
This app aims at urging people to notice beach that need to be cleaned and at urging people to do clean walks. The fisrt service that is offered is to throw lights on dirty beach. A random utilisator could notice where does the beach is, he could put pictures of the beach in order to show it and finally he could program a clean walk (put date, hours...) The second service offered is just to give people the opportunity to take part to these clean walks.
We think that it was a good idea in order to urge people to take part to these clean walks if we reached an agreement with some stores which take ecology into account and then enable regular users to have bargain in these stores. So every users have their own profile and they gain points each time their take part in a clean walk.

Wave aims to improve ocean health and marine biodiversity in a foreseeable future. Thanks to a playful concept with rewards, Wave wants people, by cleaning beaches, to realize how threatened our oceans are because of plastic pollution and how important it is to change our lifestyle. Furthermore, Wave aims to be a real green social media where people can discuss, share and even meet together in real life to take part in a socially useful subject.
In the future, the company wants to develop its service not only for the France's beach but for all the beaches around the world, which would allow the company to have a tremendous environmental and social impact.
