Introducing our forthcoming Climate Emergency Action card game

It feels like the world and its mother have declared a 'Climate Emergency' over the last twelve months! But incidental evidence is showing that most councils, organisations and individuals are at a loss as to what comes next!

The declaration is the start of the journey, not the destination!

As a response to this information and action gap, we at eco action towers have put our thinking caps on and come up with a new card game idea that will help give people a grounding in what a Climate Emergency lifestyle could look like. Its game mechanic is a potent mix of happy families, poker and 21. Aside from promising to be a lot of fun, it will equip players with a whole host of ideas and information as to what living within the limits of a Climate Emergency could look like - being part of the solution, not the problem.

We estimate to have a prototype by the spring, and would be interested in hearing from people who would be keep to beta test it for us. Contact Paula HERE if you are interested in hearing more
