Each player is the leader of his/her country, hoping to be re-elected while
trying to cope with the effects of climate change and, hopefully, reverse it.
You'll make Decisions to change the energies you use or use them in a different
way, researching topics in the Glossary. You'll also answer Questions on Climate
Change and respond to Natural Events (such as volcanic eruptions) which affect
Climate, People's Choices (unpredictable, popular human actions which impact
Greenhouse Gas emissions and tax revenues), and economic or political decisions
by other countries that affect the level of greenhouse gas emissions.
You win The Climate Change Game – and your delighted citizens re-elect you -
if you
- can help reduce global Greenhouse Gas emissions to
the level required by the Kyoto Protocol AND
- are not spending more money than people pay in taxes, AND
- maintain Voter Support of at least 51 percent AND
- Earth’s Temperature is “comfortable" for life.
