Were you part of a board game published in 2023 that made sustainable choices in its design or manufacturing?

If you were at AireCon last weekend (hello @aireconuk!) then you probably heard me mention the Green Games Guide award. Anyone who published an environmentally friendly game during 2023 can nominate themselves here: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F…

Also, if you weren’t at AireCon then you missed out. It was lovely, as always!

So, I’ve basically not been on Twitter for nearly a year. Is it still useful?

So, we at the Green Games Guide are partnering with GAMA to introduce the annual Green Games Guide’s Sustainable Production Award. The award will recognise a game that has been designed to reduce its environmental impact.
Maybe that’s you…?

The award is open for nominations NOW, closing on 31 March 2024. There will be finalists (announced in April) and a winner (announced at the Origins Fair in the US in June). Open to any game, from anywhere in the world, as long as it was first available to customers in 2023.

Yes, we need everything to be made more sustainably. And yes, that INCLUDES board games!
So thrilled to have been interviewed in the @Ludology podcast this week, about the launch of the @GreenGamesGuide earlier this month!

Love games. Love the planet too.
Let’s state the obvious: the climate and environmental crisis is an urgent and deadly planetary threat. -via @greengamesguide greengamesguide.com/

This is really important. Most actionable for folks working in the boardgame industry. But consumers also should learn more about what's in games. Tell publishers that you care about the stuff (and counteract all the noise they hear about demand for plastic minis)!
