I have my dream job but we are getting to the point where I feel like its my duty to quit my job and become a climate activist full time and that frustrates me to no end.https://twitter.com/Jumpsteady/status/1179420109800169474 …

I've been reading recently about thinking about climate change with the lens of risk management. Instead of a cliff we'll fall off of unless we stop it, more like diabetes - some combination of mitigating and adapting is necessary and the better job we do, the less harmful it...

Only you can know how to maximize your impact, but I wanted to give you some food for thought. Also, I liked this framework of thinking:https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.bbc.com/news/amp/science-environment-49756280 …

I like your thinking but I worry we might be 20 years too late for gradual change. I don't think I could live with myself if I didn't do everything I could.

I feel similarly, which is why I'm with
@AMZNforClimate. One thought: what could you do about the climate crisis with other game designers? We are much more effective collectively, than we are off by ourselves.1 reply 0 retweets 2 likes -

Art, design, creativity are absolutely essential right now. Where can game design and the talents of designers be leveraged for the profound shifts underway?

Alex SteffenVerified account @AlexSteffenThe most absolutely transformative move American philanthropy can make on the climate crisis? Fund 1,000 smart, experienced climate journalists, writers+ filmmakers for 5 years of their best work, right now. At $75K, that's $75 million a year—a fraction of 1% of US grantmaking. https://twitter.com/AlexSteffen/status/1140003063047979009 …Show this thread1 reply 0 retweets 1 like
Me and @marencosta co-lead /facilitated a session on "Designers and the climate crisis" in an internal design conference last week. Designers are hungry for this! People loved it. Can you have lunches with co-workers about this? Speak at conferences? Other ideas?

I think XR is the organisation that comes closest to my views on a long term solution. Collectivism is definitely the solution, it might need to be bigger than segmented by companies or even unions.

When you say collectivism, what does that look like? I think XR is doing what it can to push for systemic change. I also think we need all hands on deck, so I definitely want to reiterate
