CYOA Brampton

An environmentalist from Brampton, concerned about the rapid urban development in their area, is determined to express their worries to the city’s mayor. The overbuilding is erasing the natural greenery, replaced only by minimal roadside shrubs and flowers.

CYOA Brampton

choose your character

North American Grey Squirrel

You are a young grey squirrel who loves climbing trees and eating seeds, berries, and fruits. You have a lovely nest in a hole made in an oak tree. But today when you wake up and go to get breakfast you see some trees around you have been chopped down
Go investigate the trees. you walk over but,it seems like it got chopped down with a sharp axe.

further investigate the trees. Why were they cut down? Who did this?

it seems like you should go to your bestfriend, max. he knows about everything going on in the city.

need to get there quick; cross the road

woah you almost got hit by a car! they swerved at the right time.

you are almost at his tree when a human picks you up! they are taking you to a sort of house for animals and there are so many dwarf humans and they are touching the animals!

the humans picked you up and placed you in a petting zoo you live there until you are old, everyone loved you. but you have learnt a crucial piece of information while you were there the trees were being chopped down so that these huge buildings could be built there. Now there are more humans than ever!

take the long way; around the road

you get to his nest but he isnt there

stay there maybe he'll come later

surely he comes back after a while and he tells you that some buildings are being built there. But thats all he knows

eh thats enough info

try and go home in the dark

you reach to where your tree was but its gone

now you really want more info so you go to the mayor

you have a sleepover with max that night because your house is too far away

you and max now are about to have kits you have 4 kits and have a wonderful family. but you find out they cant live for more than 3 weeks because there is barely any food left that they can eat.

ask him where to get more info

he said to go to the mayors office

you go there the next day and sneak into this room with a old guy sitting at the desk

you start talking to him but then you realize humans cant understand you but surprizingly he can! You tell him about how it isnt right to cut down trees and build buildings there. The animals get hurt, the food supplies shorten, and there will be too many humans

he says he understands and will cancel the idea and he says he will build food stations for the animals

but he asks you what to put in them

seeds and acorns

fungi and nuts

HE SAYS THAT IT IS A GREAT IDEA

he likes you and your ideas so much that he wants to adopt youo

decline

he likes your independence and wishes you good luck and he apologizes for any harm he has done to all the animals

you are living a happy life where no more trees are being cut down and all the animals are safe. you even convinced the mayor to have trees planted to replace the ones that had been cut down.You are a hero! the saviour of brampton.

accept

he is very happy. you and him live a very happy life

berries and seeds

Go find some food to stash in your hoard

while strolling on the grass, you see a human. now a days there are more and more of them and fewer of us. they are taking over the world

run away/ climb a tree

they see you run way, and decide to leave you alone.

you decide to follow the human. They are going into a giant room of stashed food!

follow them inside

you decide to leave and go find food outside.

there are so many humans and it smells so good it smells like berries and meat :) but unfortunately one of the humans see you and they pick you up and throw you back outside

run away and try to find food

go back inside and bite the evil human

mission successful! they even scream, now you go find food because you need it.

Breakfast comes before anything

have an acorn you see under a tree across the road

While you are crossing the road, you get hit by a car. RIP.

go to the lady feeding ducks by the pond

she gives you some pieces of bread

Great! now that you have eaten go find out what happened to the trees.

she doesn't have any food left, go look in your hoard.

maybe you have some food in your hoard. awww its empty, you see paw prints.

Follow the tracks

The tracks lead to a tree stump.

Confront the squirrel about your food

You see that theres still some of your food there, you ask the squirrel about why they took your food. She starts crying and srates that she thought it was her's. You can tell, she's very apologetic about eating your food.

Just leave her and tell her that its okay.

You walk away feeling good about yourself. It 's good to be good.

talk to the her and become her friend

You ask her why shes crying , she says her nest got chopped down and she now has nowhere to live

Invite her to live with you in your nest.

she happily accepts. you two become best friends. but a few monthes later you feel your tree dropping to one side

it falls and you get crushed and you and your friend die. RIP

try and comfort her

she is better now. you have very good comforting skills. she tells you she has to go and find a tree to build another nest into

well you never see her ever again and yet to this date wonder what happened to her.

be yourself

you die a couple days later due to lyme disease. stupid ticks.

go be that squirrel

your name is millie. you lost your home because some human came and chopped it down. You had found another one but it had gotten chopped down a few months after you living in it and there are so many trees being chopped down that there is barely any places to live and if you try and cross the road theres a huge chance of you being killed there. And all of the food stashes are being dug up and being filled with concrete. Those stashes that we forghet about actually grow plants and trees grow there so we are actually really big helpers for the enviroment. and we get most of our food from trees and they are being cut down so that is a huge food source gone.

stay millie

it has been a fewyears and you decide to go visit your friend

when you try to find her she is impossible to find so you go ask max, your brother

he says she died

you are devestated and you dont know what to do

eat

you are looking in an old shop there were some bacteria there that caused you to get salmonella

walk around

this lady comes and takes you you areher new souvenier of brampton she looked french.

Mayor

you wake up and get ready for a conference meeting with your council. When you are finished doing this you realize that you still have some free time before the meeting. what do you do?
use the time to take a walk in the park

while walking in the park you notice a crowd of people in the distance, holding signs and chanting. Is that a protest?

there's no time to check out the crowd! your meeting is starting soon!

you decide to go to to your meeting instead good choice!

but your meeting did not go as planned. You stumbled and stuttered on your speech (if only if you practised more!) and your subordinates are not impressed. Tired and defeated, you head back to your office to finish up some work.

at your office you review a plan you want to execute, urbanising downtown Brampton. You flip open your plans and review your notes. You are really excited to start your new plan, but their is something that is standing in your way. The council of Brampton is split, some people want to urbanise and some want to work on expanding Brampton. Its your choice! what plan do you want to go with?

Lets work on expanding Brampton first, building new roads and subdivisions. That is much more important.

When you became mayor, you promised to make Brampton a more future-friendly and modern town. Are you sure you want to go with expanding instead?

No, lets stick to the original plan

Yes, Brampton should work on expanding before urbanising.

Alright, lets do this

You bring your plans to your council and they are hesitant at first since this was not the original plan. But they decide to go with it and start planning.

Look at the newly made plans

or do you want to create a whole new subdivision all together

get plans approved

most of the people in Brampton are outraged, since no one had asked for a subdivision to be buildt.

but you know what, you decide to build anyways

but there is a problem- to build over this new subdivision you have to clear down some land, and small patch of trees. That has quite a abunace of animals living in it.it could have a serious toll on the animals living there. but unfornalty due to your inorgance, when the subdivsiob was buildt it have a environmental toll on the wildlife around it. All the extra littler and pollution has caused populations of the local birds to decrease, death from scarce food and

lets do it

There a small subdivision on the edge of suburban Brampton that you think is in need of some renovating, do you want to wok on that?

hey, this story is getting boring. switch to a different character

Be the environmentalist

Be the squirrel

Lets work on Urbanising downtown Brampton, lets make Brampton into a more modern, like Toronto and lets add new attractions to Brampton, so more people can get jobs.

this is a major decision, that could alter the path of your entire career in politics, are you sure this is the path you want to go down?

No, lets try something else

Yes

Then lets get to it!

you bring your plans to your council and they are ecstatic to begin planning for your newest developments to Brampton.

you are sitting in your office when a squirrel comes in and starts talking, it was saying to not cut down the trees and how it was affecting the animals! You understood the squrirrel because you can surprisingly understand squirrel.

You like the squirrel so much you want to adopt it and make it your advisor

It declines and you like its independence. and you want to make up for the trees being cut down so you offer to plant new trees to make up for it.

The next day you go to the council and cancel the idea of the urbanization

wander closer

you wander close enough to read the signs, and you're shocked to realise that the people at the park are protesting against..you?

Your shock quickly turns into anger as you whip your head to look at the local news team who had just arrived on scene. You're at the protest but....what now?

slowly back away and pretend that you were never there.

You slowly back away from the crowd and run until you're out of sight. You are pretty out of breath at this point so you deicde to take a rest on a lonely park bench. Suddenly a voice above calls out to you, hey hey hey the voice chriped up here it cried, as you followed tohe voice to a small branch of a learge oak tree beside your bench. You are surprised to see that the voice belonged to a squrill?! At first no words leave your mouth but you mange to stammer out "eeh-bu't--wha?- you barely have time to finish your sentence before the squrill begins to talk about squrill is interupptrd by a second voice, its your friend Paul

finishs

Decline the offer and talk to the squirell instead.

get a drink with Paul instead

try to talk to the protesters

boy that worked! the protesters saw you and decided to swarm around you, yelling and shoving signs in your face.

confront the news team

you try your best to be brave and walk up to the reporter of the news station, and pat her on the shoulder. "hello-" you begin, before being aggressively pushed in front of a a camera

"Terry Winters!" the reporter exclaimed, "What a delightful surprise!, we have quite a few questions for you!". "erhm, well actually-" you are suddenly bombarded by bright lights and the microphones of reporters wanting answers. "where did all these people come from?!" you ask yourself.

use this time to look over your notes and practice your conference meeting speech

congrats! your speech was a success and the council was interested in your plans for urbanizing Brampton. Way to be prepared!

while you're busy bragging about the success on your speech, you get interrupted by your receptionist, who is holding a phone. You take the phone from her and put it to your ear. Its a environmentalist! the environmentalist explains that they would let to have a meeting to sit down and talk about the environmental impacts of your new plan.

nah, sounds like a waste of time

you decline this offer and slam down the receiver without saying good bye. Wow. arent you a nice person.

after declining the enviromentalist's offer you speed to to your office to get some work done.

wow! what a good idea! you'll be sure to schedule a time.

about a week later you arrange your meeting with the environmentalist and she talks to you about something called Green Plan. The enviromentalist is trying to find a way for Brampton to urbanize brampton, but keep a healthy balance between the green space and the buildings. But this will cost money too, and would interfere with your orginal plan for Brampton. What is your choice

I'll like to learn more about this Green plan

Subtopic

Lets just learn more about urbanising and expanding. This "green plan" seems too complicated for me

Environmentalist

You are 38 and have been living in Brampton your whole life. Now, in 2012 there's been a peak in the development in your area of downtown Brampton. You are outraged by the amount of houses and buildings being built, there are barely any tress and greenery except the few shrubs and flowers along the roads.
Have a meeting with the mayor to express your concerns

On your way to city hall, you run over a squirrel.

Leave the squirrel there and drive away, as you are already running late for your scheduled meeting.

That's cold. It seems there is construction ahead of you, causing traffic. This causes you to miss your meeting, Karma maybe?

check on the squirrel to make sure it's okay.

You killed the squirrel. Great. So much for your "pro-animal" views. You are also now 45 minutes late for your meeting.

take a different route, you might make it.

Take Dixie Rd.

You made it just in the nick of time and were able to meet with the mayor. You expressed to him your concerns for the preservation of greenery and animals, he was more than happy to ensure you that the plans for the future won't harm the environment in any way shape or form.He even showed you his plans, if he continues to stay in office.

Take Queen St.

There was a car accident on the way, you ended up running a red light. You got a speeding ticket for $320. Sucks, your car is also now scratched because you made too sharp of a turn and hit the curb.

Organize a powerful protest at gage park

It was actually difficult to find people that supported your environmentalist views, everyone was quite happy with the changes being made in Brampton.
