Awards
These are awards given out to areas or organisations which have proven to fit the criteria provided below. They celebrate the efforts of community and towns and give attention to areas which have dedicated their time to preserving or enriching the natural environment.
Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB)
The AONB is an award given to areas on the MRT with, as the name suggests, outstanding natural beauty. The area must fit at least two of these requirements:
- Be an area of immense biodiversity, in plants and occasionally in animals,
- Be an area of interesting or unique features, which may be unique through other examples being destroyed,
- Be conserved or encouraged to grow by surrounding towns.
- Be an area which lets humans explore nature without impeding too much on the course of nature
It must also fit all of the following requirements:
- Be a large area,
- Be outdoors, or if indoors, in either an abandoned building where the building provides a habitat for animals and plants or another natural feature,
- Be not completely default Minecraft terrain, except if it is one of the only examples of the terrain on the server.
Recent Winners
Sunset Peak
Sunset Peak is a dark forest near Storalisburg, run through by several paths and by a road, both of which serve as examples of how humans can cooperate with nature.
Qualifications
- Be a large area: It is about 60,000 square metres big.
- Be outdoors, or if indoors, in either an abandoned building where the building provides a habitat for animals and plants or another natural feature: It is outdoors
- Be not completely default Minecraft terrain, except if it is one of the only examples of the terrain on the server: It is not completely default terrain, as it has been terraformed a bit by the nearby town, and also it is one of the only examples of a dark forest on the server.
- Be an area of immense biodiversity, in plants and occasionally in animals: It contains one of the rarest plants on the server, the mushroom tree, and other rare trees, as well as several animals.
- Be an area which lets humans explore nature without impeding too much on the course of nature: It contains many paths and a road that allows visitors to watch the surrounding nature and the sunrises and sunsets, but do not impede on the course of nature.
