The model behind the Catchment Detox game was developed by Nick Marsh, Sylvain Arene and Stuart Minchin in a collaboration between the CSIRO Division of Land and Water and the eWater Cooperative Research Centre. Concept is a tool for creating dynamic conceptual diagrams. Concept was originally designed for a natural resource management audience, but it could be used by anyone who needs to visualise a process.

I was proud that I'd managed to create a sustainable community with mixed land use and protection of water and biodiversity. The game needs a bit more feedback so that it's clear how the decisions made impact on the final outcome. But a good resource for teachers to get students to think about environmental issues.
