Growing Old Together, feat Arnaud Fayolle, Mark Videon & Paula Escuadra

In this special episode we get all of the spokespeople for the new IGDA Climate SIG workstreams together in a virtual room spanning three continents. Arnaud Fayolle tells us how we can get involved in crafting and promoting the actions that will shape future game design in the Design Patterns workstream, Mark Videon gives us the lowdown on how to monitor you studios' carbon footprints in the Industry Benchmarking workstream, while Paula Escuadra plots how we use all this to take over the games industry in the Climate Councils workstream. Are we ready to get this party started? Actually, it was ending it that turned out to be the problem.

Confused about the workstreams? This is a neat illustration (followed by all the detail you could ever ask for):
