Neighborhood Action Plans or short NAPs are actions voted by the Evergreen Harbor neighborhood communities. Place a Community Voting Board and the highest-voted NAP will be put into practice.
Voting takes place from Friday at 8 AM to Monday at 6 PM. The winning NAP is enacted when voting is closed and lasts until it is repealed.
There are four active action plans that can be enacted at the same time.
List of NAPs in The Sims 4 Eco-Lifestyle
Back to the Old Days
This NAP challenges your Sims to go back to reading books and playing board games and putting aside technology. Those who successfully complete the challenge will gain more Influence. Those who can’t stay away from technology, juice, and woohoo will get fined.
NAP Description
I remember the good old days. We used to play board games and read books. Nowadays, all anyone can think about is their phone and their TV. They’re juicing it up, chugging all their wretched juice.
And what’s with this obsession with woohoo? Woohoo in the bed, Woohoo in the Rocket Ship, Woohoo in the hot tub, Woohoo in the observatory, and if that wasn’t enough – now you delinquents are woohooing in Dumpsters? Gross.
With this initiative, those who live a wholesome lifestyle of reading books and playing board games will be rewarded with Influence. And those who indulge in technology, drinking juice, and woohoo will be properly fined for their woeful deeds.
Clean Energy Production
Install as many solar panels, wind turbines, and dew collectors near your house and in the neighborhood and get rewarded with Influence.
NAP Description
We have the luxury of living in a world that provides us with everything we need. We just need to learn how to harness that energy!
With the Clean Energy N.A.P. in place, members of the community will be rewarded with Influence for owning functional clean energy-producing objects like Solar Panels, Wind Turbines, and Dew Collectors.
Eco-Friendly Appliances
Not every broken thing needs to end up in the landfill. Repair broken appliances and make them more eco-friendly or use green-upgraded appliances.
You’ll be rewarded with extra Handiness skills and Influence.
Voting for this NAP is key if you want to make Port Promise green.
NAP Description
Neighbors, I think we could all benefit from a good N.A.P. One that promotes even the smallest changes to help make a difference. Together we can push to fix our neighborhood one appliance at a time.
Let’s take action into our own hands by making Handiness skills and Influence easier to get by using green-upgraded appliances or by repairing any appliance.
Foodies Unite!
This NAP is perfect for foodies and Sims who love cooking. Create new recipes using home-grown ingredients and earn more Influence.
NAP Description
Neighbors, let’s get cooking! There are so many fabulous organic, non-organic, home-grown, and freebie ingredient options out there.
Crack out that cutting board and start experimenting! Under the Foodies Unite N.A.P., members of the community will be rewarded Influence by exercising their tasty skills in home style, Gourmet, or any other style of cooking.
Free Love
Love and jealousy cannot co-exist when the Free Love NAP is active. This NAP helps your Sims to increase the number of their romantic interactions by giving up inhibitions.
NAP Description
Who needs negativity when you could be drenched in love? Who needs jealousy when you could be embraced with understanding? Vote with your heart and we can transform our community into a butterfly of love for all.
Whether Single, Married, or just open, we embrace loving each other in all of its beautiful forms. When Free Love reigns, you can gain Influence through Romance interactions.
Fun-Loving Community
Why so serious? Sim life is short, let your Sims enjoy everything that life has to offer and engage in activities that involve Comedy, Mischief, Video Gaming, and so on.
NAP Description
Recreation should be celebrated, not stifled! It’s time to eradicate boredom and embrace having fun. Vote for this N.A.P. and not only will we be able to let loose as a whole, but residents will also be rewarded with Influence for doing activities that involve Comedy, Mischief, and even Video Gaming!
Juiced Community
Produce as much juice as possible and share it with your neighbors. Townies will get the Dazed moodlet while this NAP is active. That’s why everyone is dazed in your game.
NAP Description
Get ready to get JUICED! In support of all things fizzy and funky, this N.A.P. wants to get everyone juiced up. Gain Influence by using the practical Juice Fizzing and Mixology skills to make concoctions for the entire neighborhood.
Green Gardening
Got a green thumb? Then accept this challenge and grow your own garden using eco-friendly methods.
NAP Description
Have you always had the yearning to start gardening but never quite had the gumption to do it? Well, this fresh new N.A.P. might be just the thing to push you over that figurative mound of procrastination soil.
Grab your snips, cast your vote, and you’ll get Influence for flexing your mighty green thumb. Growing a garden is beneficial for you, the community, and the planet. Let’s all dig in!
Power Conservation
Take all the measures you need to limit the power consumption in your household and get rewarded with Influence. Or fail to do so and get daily fines.
NAP Description
Energy isn’t free, so what can we do on our part to help conserve? The Power Conservation Action Plan helps to answer that difficult question.
Step 1: Limit your household’s overall consumption of Power by avoiding overuse of electronics.
Step 2: Sacrifice one teensy weensy day per week without Power. The Landgraab Power Company even agreed to give a discount on utility bills for this.
Failure to conserve a satisfactory amount of Power for your household size, as defined by the Board of N.A.P. will result in a daily fine.
Promote Creative Arts
Let your imagination run wild and brush up your painting, photography, crafting, or writing skills. Get creative! You’ll also earn increased pay when this NAP is enacted.
NAP Description
The mark of a true artistic community is a shared passion for Creative Arts. Support this maker mindset with your vote, and you’ll be rewarded not only with the pride you get from creating, but also with Influence from doing Painting, Photography, Writing, Fabrication, and other artistic activities.
Professionals working as Painters, Style Influencers, Freelance Crafters, or Writers will also earn increased pay while this N.A.P. is active.
Rock Your Body (and Mind)
Stay fit, keep your house clean, and look after your well-being. That’s the recipe to use if you want to have happy Sims in your game.
NAP Description
What better way to care for oneself than with the accountability of a whole community? This initiative puts the “Action” back in Neighborhood Action Plans.
Together we can make sure all Sims in the neighborhood are practicing their Fitness, keeping up on Hygiene, looking after their overall wellbeing, and boosting their Influence while they’re at it!
Roughhousing Encouraged
No more politeness, assert your stance and speak up your mind. Stop worrying about hurting people’s feelings. Just be yourself.
Sims will get into random brawls when this NAP is active.
NAP Description
Have you ever heard another Sim’s opinion and thought, “I should be polite but I really think this conversation would be better if I asserted my stance, refused to back down, and ultimately engaged in a full-out neighborly brawl”? We’re with you.
Sometimes we believe there is such a thing as being too polite. We should band together to make this world better, one fight cloud at a time. A world where we can speak our minds without any hurt feelings or bruised egos.
Vote for the Roughhousing Encouraged N.A.P. and you can gain Influence by using Mean interactions with other Sims. If that’s the kind of Sim you want to be.
Self-Sufficiency
Learn to become self-sufficient. Stop buying things from corporations. Grow your own garden, learn to catch fish, and give up on consumerism.
Official NAP Description
Why keep feeding the corporate beast and continue spinning on this degrading hamster wheel of consumerist shame? We can rise up and maintain a perfectly good community ourselves!
We can live in a community where things like Fishing, Gardening, and Handiness are rewarded with increased Influence, as well as a sense of accomplishment.
Sharing is Caring
Learn to share things with others. Share that bike. Don’t let stuff own you.
Don’t be surprised if various items suddenly disappear from your household or lot. That’s normal while this NAP is active.
NAP Description
Some Sims own a lot of things. Some Sims own just a little bit of things. But what if everyone could just own everything? See that bike sitting there? That could be your bike! Or anyone’s bike!
With this initiative, everything you see can be yours. You see something, you take it. No questions asked, no repercussions. Just don’t get too attached to anything you already own…
Support the Performing Arts!
If you’re a singer, this is a great opportunity to earn more money.
NAP Description
There are some who say Music is healing for the soul and Performing is healing for the heart. Uplift our community and gain Influence by not only sharing the melodies of the Instruments that you play but also by expressing other forms of Performing Arts.
Professionals working in Entertainment-related Careers can also enjoy increased pay while this N.A.P. is active.
Tech Support
Embrace technology and use it to make the world a better place. Design new eco-friendly devices.
Official NAP Description
Have you grown too comfortable with things just the way they are? Don’t be caught N.A.P.ing on your community’s technological progress.
Working with Programming, Rocket Science, or other methods, we can continue to make our world a better place through technology and boost our Influence while doing it.
As an added bonus, Sims working in tech-related Career fields such as Astronauts, Tech Gurus, Scientists, Freelance Programmers, and Civil Designers will also have increased pay if this initiative gets voted in.
Upcycling Initiative
Recycle everything, don’t just buy new stuff. Use the Fabricator to turn old things and materials into new useful things.
Official NAP Description
Why spend your Simoleons on something you could create for yourself? Why do we throw away so many materials that could go into making something special and new?
With the Upcycling Initiative, we are giving Influence to everyone using Recyclers to get materials and Fabricators to turn those materials into something responsibly wonderful!
Water Conservation
Water is an essential resource that very few appreciate. Sims can now join the Water Shut-off Day and consume less water — ideally, not a single drop of water. The households that fail to do so will get fined.
Official NAP Description
The water isn’t quite flowing with the flow with which it used to flow. How can we all chip in and help to conserve?
We believe that with the pairing of a weekly Water Shut-off Day and an organized effort to Consume Less Water, this community can really make a difference!
Failure to conserve a satisfactory amount of Water for your household size, as defined by the Board of N.A.P. will result in a daily fine. Have a nice day.
We Wear Bags
This NAP adds some craziness to the Sims 4 world — at least in the most eco-friendly neighborhood of the game. If this action plan gets enacted, all the participants will be walking around wearing paper bags on their heads.
This NAP has no real benefits, it’s just plain crazy fun.
Official NAP Description
Our community values reducing and recycling. But – has anyone else noticed that the paper bags are starting to pile up? We wouldn’t dare throw those away! They could come to good use someday!
Don’t you think every last one of those 8,346 neatly folded pieces of untapped potential have finally earned their time to shine?
With the We Wear Bags Action Plan, we can proudly wear our bags as a mark of our Eco Lifestyles.
