About this Event
Join the Very Bigly Climate Game: Shape the Future of Our Planet
Step into an immersive climate mega-game where you and friends take on the roles of global leaders, decision-makers, and influencers. Over five rounds of play, you’ll navigate 100 years of critical choices, from carbon taxes to pandemics, guiding humanity through climate challenges, economic shifts, and social upheavals. Will you champion techno-optimism, defend a centrist stance, or push for radical degrowth? The future is in your hands!
As you negotiate with other continents, tackle surprise minigames, and make high-stakes decisions, every choice will ripple through the game’s ecosystem, influencing global scores on GDP, carbon, and health. Unlock bonus points for creativity and storytelling, and use your resources wisely to achieve your tribe’s hidden objectives. Who will emerge as the ultimate architects of a sustainable future?
Will you steer the world towards sustainability or watch it slide into chaos? Sign up now.
