Grow Dandelions T-Shirt
Want to help spread information about saving bees, and look good doing so? Look no further than these stylish tees! Made from natural fiber dyes, these tees spread a simple but important message: grow dandelions.
This T-shirt pack includes 13 shirts: 7 colours for women, and 6 for men. This is a standalone T-shirt, and will not replace anything in your game. The zip file includes the two sets separately, so you can decide to install either or both.

Dandelions are often seen as weeds, and immediately removed from a garden. Yet they are vital for the bees: after the food scarcity during winter, dandelions are one of the first new sources of food. Not only are they desirable for their blooming period, dandelion flowers are almost as popular among bees as fruit trees are. These flowers have a very high diversity in visiting bee species, and can grow in urban and rural areas. In urban areas it can be especially important to grow dandelions: due to urban planning habitats can become too heterogeneous, and adding dandelions helps increase food supplies.
Not a fan of dandelions? The spring-blooming white clover would also be an excellent addition to keep in the garden.

About Me
'SustainableSims' is dedicated to creating Sims content that considers how The Sims 4 can be used as a tool to combat the climate crisis.
The climate crisis affects the entire planet. This human-caused crisis is irreversible on a timescale of a single lifetime, and will still worsen. Combatting this crisis will require social change driven by new socialtechnological imaginaries. Not only do we need to develop new societal goals, we need to design new societal, economic, and cultural structures. The climate crisis arose from a network of interwoven issues from processes such as capitalism, classism, and colonialism. Fighting the climate crisis is thus inherently a political act.
Video games can help facilitate combatting this crisis through the communication (meta)practices they make possible. They help us question the way we live, and then let us propose new alternatives. Using this angle, The Sims can be an ecocritical tool to consider new imaginaries.
