Why pledge
Habitats worth protecting
The experience lets you step into three very different wild worlds — forest, ocean and grassland — and look closely at the animals that live there.
Visiting a habitat in augmented reality is only the beginning. A pledge is a small, public commitment to keep caring for the places you have just seen, and it sits alongside a set of tools for sharing what you found with others.
The pledge panel is part of the experience itself: once you have explored a habitat, you can tap and hold to save what you saw, then add your pledge and share it with your own network.
Return to the experience whenever you want to look again at the habitats and the animals within them.
Pledging a habitat turns curiosity into commitment. After moving through forest, ocean and grassland in the immersive experience, you can hold to save an animal or a viewpoint, add a short pledge, and share it with your own network. The point is not to collect stamps but to keep attention on the environments you have just explored, and to give others a reason to look again. A pledge sits alongside practical tools for sharing what you found, so the reflective moment that follows a visit can travel further than the screen it happened on. Taken one at a time, these small public commitments add up to a wider habit of noticing and caring for wild places.
