How about a recycling event for Earth Day?

Since there’s a bit of time to prepare for an Earth Day event, how about a recycling challenge where everyone can work on a little inventory management and earn a leveled badge depending on how much they recycle? With the upper tiers you’d probably have to run around and play a bit to pile up enough to earn those levels. Either way it would remind people to recycle.

I like the concept of an event for Earth Day, but it seems like a recycling challenge would just really be a hacking challenge.

That seems antithetical to the message of Earth Day? "Let us acquire junk so that we can throw it away — I mean, recycle it." Better to have not acquired the junk in the first place…
The theme for this year is Restoring the Earth. Pretty obvious where that is heading.
Recharge challenge
More ap for 2nd to 8th reso
More ap for portal caps

I think my take on this might be something like:
I can already hear the screams of agony, but I think that might be the point, to confront the harshness of a world where the things we depend on are not actually available in infinite supply.

If anyone can come up with a less fun way to celebrate Earth Day, please do share. 😆
Sounds like fun.. there should even be a permanent badge for this if anything.
My theory on the Kinetic Capsules is that we won't see multiple active capsules, until Adventure Sync is working within Prime, because people paying for an equivalent to the Incubators will expect an equivalent service.
So while this could be an interesting method of having an event, I doubt it'll happen in time for Earth Day.
Perhaps, but using a different metric for it makes it fit the theme a little better. Plus, they probably don’t want to be the game that doesn’t do anything for Earth Day. Not a great look.
They could turn off all the portals at night 😂
"We've swapped out all the portals with energy-efficient alternatives that use 80% less XM."
That must have been when we had reduced decay 😀
That would actually be pretty funny 😂
but..... what if they turned them off AND made everyone have to go turn them back on?
Actually, that would be a pretty funny April fools joke if they told everyone that every portal not switched back on by the end of the day was going to be deleted.
"Do you remember the mass portal extinction event of 2021?"
"Ahh, the start of the Age of Ingress Aquarius!"
That would be a funny thing to tell new players about. Kinda like campfire stories about the snipe; and then we send them to find imaginary POI to re-nominate 😂
This is hilarious and I would love to see it.
Hacking items only will work at a certain time? As the items aren't infinite, but finite. Say hacking only works for 1 hour duration per 4 hour intervals out of the day?
UTC 1:00 to UTC 2:00 Hacking
UTC 6:00 to UTC 7:00 Hacking
UTC 11:00 to UTC 12:00 Hacking
UTC 16:00 to UTC 17:00 Hacking
UTC 21:00 to UTC 22:00 Hacking
All other times, you can't hack anything. Resources gone.
