Our Co-Founder @ClaudeAGarcia featured in @BBCWorld "People fixing the world"-Series on how Games can help with inaction in climate change. Tune in!

The game equation:
Information + Emotions = Insights.
What you do with the insights afterwards is your responsibilty.

Whose perspective counts? We reviewed definitions and uses of terms associated with natural and near-natural forests. Some findings: Although importance of values is increasingly recognised, definitions that explicitly incorporate values are scarce. 1/

In Senegal we facilitated catalisation of voluntary private sector commitment under the @biodev2030 project by @IUCN together with @cirad and @JulienChupin. Testimonials from the participatory game sessions that helped to identify concrete action points.

"[T]reat the non-humans not as scenery but as relatives." What a powerful statement! We are not alone on this planet. Biodiversity matters, has intrinsic value, and (should have) rights!

Coming back from #COP27 I can't help rethink about this. It is possible to imagine a better way to design policies and agreements.

It has taken a long time, but we're at last getting to grips with the enormous environmental impacts of the livestock industry. The struggle to defend the living planet against its predations will be familiar to anyone involved in fighting the fossil fuel industry 20 years ago.🧵

[Dr. Aaron Thierry @ThierryAaron]

The KEY question, I'm asked by students when I guest lecture about the #ClimateCrisis is 'but what can we do?'

So I recently rewrote my materials to try & tackle that question head on. Feel free to adapt them.

Buckle up - here's a LONG thread🧵about how we can fight back!

The Global Carbon Budget just released. #COP27 @gcarbonproject @PFriedling

[Glen Peters @Peters_Glen]

Deforestation is the main driver of land-use emissions (6.7GtCO₂/yr for 2012-2021).

Forest fluxes from re/afforestation & forestry counterbalance about half of these emissions (-3.5GtCO₂/yr), leading to a net LUC flux of 4.5GtCO₂/yr.

[Glen Peters @Peters_Glen]

Compared to older generations of emission scenarios (left) and AR6 (right), CO₂ emissions slowed down sufficiently to avoid the worst-case outcomes, but have not remotely reduced in line to keep <1.5°C.

@andyextance @ClaudeAGarcia Yes. We see that whenever we organise demos public events. People want to try and to understand better. young and old. The challenge is to get a good game master.
