The free online publication provides an overview of ways in which a company can become more climate-friendly. Alongside practical tips and background information, such as how to calculate and reduce carbon emissions, concrete examples of successful sustainability projects in games companies are presented, including initiatives for reforesting, cleaning up the oceans or communicating knowledge about climate change. In interviews, InnoGames, GameDuell and the Good Evil also explain how environmental and climate protection can be integrated into both the company and also games.
‘Protecting our environment is currently one of the biggest challenges facing our society, and as the games industry, we are naturally playing our part,’ says Felix Falk, Managing Director of game. ‘The aim of our Environmental Guide is to share the experience acquired to date by companies in the games industry and provide ideas for concrete ways to operate and do business even more sustainably. It’s great to see how aware and willing the industry is, with a whole range of measures already in place. We want to support this journey with our guide and other initiatives such as the partnership with the Green Games Summit in the run-up to the UN Climate Change Conference.’
The guide is available free of charge in German at www.game.de/game-umwelt-guide. The English version of the publication can be found here: www.game.de/en/game-environmental-guide.

These include the reduction of energy consumption for power and heating, the use of green electricity and the separation of waste among many further measures, as game reported in June. game itself is already active in the field of environmental and climate protection: for instance, the game association office has been completely climate-neutral since 2021.
