【實用教育app】Woodland Fuel|最夯免費app-綠色工廠好玩App

Have you ever wondered how many trees are in your car – probably not, but we did, then we wrote an app to work it out because we’re a little bit lazy, and we just thought it would be cool way to raise environmental awareness.

As it turns out oil is made from prehistoric plants, not dinosaurs (childhood ruined!). Woodland Fuel calculates the number of trees you used on any given journey and presents the information in a fun and relatable way.

All you need to know is how many miles you did and your average miles-per-gallon (it also works for you sensible people using kilometeres, just don’t mix and match miles and kilometeres-per-gallon or it may blow up and end the world, or just throw an error and crash, we’re not entirely sure as we were too scared to test it).

If you’re interested in the science that went into Woodland Fuel check out the Mystral Design blog where we’ve given a complete write up.

Woodland Fuel is and always will be completely free, but if you do like it please consider making a donation to a charity instead. We recommend the World Land Trust Save A Habitat.

There is also a super top-secret feature hidden waiting to be discovered (ok it’s not really that super top secret, hint: who are we?).

P.S. We should need to say this, but Woodland Fuel is for fun and entertainment, and although there is a fair amount of research and science. In other words if you use this for any serious scientific work, don’t blame us if it all goes wrong and you blow something up.
