Clean Breathing

About this event

What does fighting for clean air look like when economic growth, energy demand, and public health collide? 🎲 PowerJungle puts you in charge of a fast-growing city. Your citizens demand affordable power, but dirty energy triggers hazardous PM2.5 spikes and toxic air pollution. Can you transition your grid to clean energy, keep the lights on, and protect public health, or will pollution choke your city’s future? 🌎 Daybreak puts you in the shoes of major global powers balancing rapid decarbonization, industrial emissions, and community resilience. From transboundary smog to heavy industry, each region faces different economic pressures and pollution risks. You will have to decide how to phase out high-emitting infrastructure, invest in clean alternatives, and work together before climate crises and toxic air overwhelm vulnerable communities. There are no easy answers. You will face competing priorities, systemic trade-offs, and crucial decisions to make. Tackling air pollution and climate change requires navigating real political and economic nuances, and this is your chance to explore them firsthand. Through gameplay and guided group debriefs, you will unpack the systemic connections between energy, clean air, and policy, exchange perspectives with passionate peers, and discover how different the fight for clean breathing looks from another seat at the table. Come play, debate, and see the future of clean air from a fresh perspective.
