Understorey: Earthcare Play

from Understorey Hosted by RTRFM

Right now might be an excellent time to bring play and playfulness to the Earthcarers’ ethos. Lisa Wriley has received the rights to reinvent her favourite New Zealand board game from the 70s, hoping to make it available to all those who love a good sit round the table in the spirit of environmental cooperation. “Earthcare” the board game, rolls the dice on a more sustainable future, for those keen to close the circle on material waste and to embrace some family and friend time too. To find out about playability, Understorey also speaks to two fans of “Earthcare”: Sue Martin, national coordinator of Catholic Earthcare Australia; and Julian Bowker, a cyber security expert. So to find out if it’s a game for your kitchen table, or your camp by the billabong, Understorey explores more about the art of making board games, and the newer skill of running a Kickstarter campaign (as an all-or-nothing venture by July 11) .
