Chevron introduces Energyville Video Game

I thought this was a pretty brilliant initiative from Chevron-- sort of a spin on Sim City. The petrol providers are obviously key participants in our evolution, but it's interesting to see them having a dialog with consumers and addressing some of the issues they're facing and how demand ties in.
