Playing for the planet

Playing for the planet alliance

UNEP is partnering with the video games industry to inspire young people to take action on climate change by integrating environmental features and messages into their favorite games. 

As millions of youth engage with gaming, this collaboration offers a unique opportunity to raise awareness and reduce the industry’s carbon footprint, empowering young people to become environmental 

The Playing for the Planet Alliance, launched during the UN Secretary-General’s Climate Action Summit on September 23, 2019, unites the video games industry in the fight against environmental degradation. With the support of UNEP, the Alliance now boasts 50 members, all committed to making a tangible difference. 

These companies pledge bold, measurable actions—from achieving net-zero carbon emissions to embedding powerful environmental messages in their games—using the platform of gaming to drive global climate action and inspire millions of players to become environmental stewards.
