Inspiration

We were inspired by the challenges species face with global warming and other factors. We wanted to create something that can be made quickly within 12 hours, but is useful enough to help sustain endangered species population. Thusly, we came up with Gaia's Graph's.

What it does

*Gaia's Graphs is a python program with simple UI. it shows graphs that display correlation data between the given species decrease over 40 years and the CO2 percentage in the atmosphere. It also gives small paragraphs of information about each animal.

How we built it

Built using Python 3.10.2 We used PySimpleGUI for the first time to make the frontend and UI buttons, and Python Turtle for creating the graphs.

Challenges we ran into

Most of the challenges we faced was simply finding and fixing small bugs that broke everything. PySimpleGUI, despite the name, was slightly challenging to master for the first time

Accomplishments that we're proud of

We're proud of what we've created in less than a day, and we believe that with maybe a week's more work put into it, it could start to actually help ecologists save endangered species.

What we learned

We Started learning how to use PySimpleGUI to create simple UI designs in a window, adding buttons and menus to interact with. We also learned to use Python Turtle to create graphs with text.

What's next for Gaia's Graphs

If this project were to continue further, we would add more endangered and extinct animal species and corresponding graphs. We could also add more variables like area temperature and if the species has had contact with humans in any way.
