Environmental doom simulator? Check. Grim statistics? Double check. Balance of the Planet lets you tinker with carbon emissions, wildlife extinction, and deforestation until you either save the world or make it slightly more inhabitable for cockroaches. It's basically SimEarth with an environmentalist hangover, and somehow makes graphs feel like moral choices. Fun? Debatable. Educational? Oh yes.
