Carbon City Zero is a collaborative climate action game in which players develop a sustainable city by greening transport, transforming industries, getting citizens on board, and showing world leaders how it's done. Each player starts with an identical deck, buying additional cards from a shared marketplace to create a more sustainable city. Balancing the need to generate income with reducing carbon, you can follow numerous paths to victory, but collaboration is key. You'll need to bring together governments, industries, and the public. And if you can't bring carbon levels to zero before it's too late, everybody loses. The stakes couldn't be higher.

About the Author
Possible (Author)
Possible is a climate-action organisation set up in 2009. From their founding challenge to cut carbon by 10% by 2010, to their world-leading Solar Schools campaign, or more recent work on solar-powered railways, everything they do is about inspiring more people to take more action on climate change.Rami Niemi (Illustrator) Finland's favourite cheeky illustrator Rami Niemi uses his trademark style to create belligerent, boundary-pushing work that blows raspberries in the face of stale content. Despite his envious client list (including Nike, Google and The New York Times), Rami's happy simply drawing "scenes with many characters, clothes, guitars, haircuts and beer cans."More from Science & Nature
