Give Earth A Chance Cooperative Game for Climate and Civic Learning

Hello!

I’m reaching out to share Give Earth A Chance (GEAC), a free cooperative board game created as an open resource for educators, advocates, and communities working on climate action. GEAC transforms the climate crisis from an abstract issue into a shared challenge where collaboration is the only path to survival.

The game can be used in classrooms, workshops, or community gatherings to help people:

  • Explore the interconnected challenges of climate change
  • Practice collaborative problem-solving instead of competition
  • Understand how trust, environment, and economy are all linked

GEAC is offered free to everyone under a Creative Commons license. The complete game can be downloaded through OER Commons and MERLOT, two trusted global repositories for open educational resources:

You can also explore the broader project, background, and community resources at our website.

I believe this tool can support advocacy groups like yours by creating accessible, engaging ways to bring people together around climate issues. Whether in youth programs, community workshops, or public events, the game is designed to spark critical thinking, cooperation, and hope.

I appreciate your commitment to advancing climate justice and collective action.

Warm regards,
