Description

Have you dreamed of getting rich in the rat-race of capitalism? Do you have no moral qualms about destroying everything around you to reach your goals? Congrats! You are now the leader of an entire consumer industry!

It is your goal to make as much profit as possible, but productivity comes with a price - or rather, a carbon footprint. The emissions that you and your fellow entrepreneurs send into the atmosphere affect the average temperature of the big blue ball you all call home. If global temperatures increase past 4° C, you all lose to climate catastrophes!

Based on real-life climatology reports, this game is designed to help you think about the actual deciding forces behind climate change (hint: it rhymes with shmoney). Whether you choose to collaborate, regulate, or sabotage your competitors, the outcomes represent actual possible futures for our planet. Good luck, and try not to ruin everything!

"Makes an unfortunate amount of sense."
