Apps for Earth: Apple teams up with WWF, will raise funds for environmental conservation
Do you know what's happening in a week's time, on April 22? That's right, we are celebrating Earth Day, the annual event that demonstrates humanity's readiness to protect the environment. Being one of the larger companies that put a lot of emphasis on their pro-environment policies, Apple has just kicked off a new "green" initiative.
Apple will be donating all the proceeds generated from a flurry of apps to the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) until April 24. Additionally, the App Store got a slight makeover and is now featuring mostly app and games s that have been updated with environmental content.
How it works? Simple: if you buy any of these apps or games in the next 9 days, you will be contributing to WWF's cause.
Meanwhile, there are some free apps included in the initiative, so if you make an in-app purchase of any kind, you will also be donating to the environmental organization.
Protecting the planet, one app at a time
Some nifty exclusive content will be hitting users that already have some of the participating app installed. For example, Hearthstone users will be able to purchase a powerful new hero—Khadgar; Hay Day fans can purchase the WWF Bag of Diamonds and rest assured their money will be used for a good cause; Candy Crush Soda Saga is getting an exclusive new event.
Here are some other apps & games that are participating: Star Wars: Galaxy of Heroes, Enlight, SimCity BuildIt, Trivia Crack, Kendall and Kylie, Line, Cut the Rope: Magic, Jurassic World: The Game, Angry Birds 2, VSCO, MARVEL Contest of Champions, and many others.
