How We Save The World
A story game by Coney, in collaboration with environmental scientists.
What if you had the power to save the world.... Join Coney on an adventure through moments in history where change might be possible, to help save the world from the worsening effects of the climate crisis. In this playable experience, the audience takes control of the unfolding story. Guided by our expert pilots, you'll enter the Time Machine and travel across decades and continents, landing at pivotal moments of the environmental crisis, from the South Sumatran rainforest, to a house party in Clapton. You'll steer the course of our collective journey by voting, speaking up and influencing other players - with plenty of laughs along the way. By looking at how we got to where we are today, together we'll explore moments where small actions can create a ripple of change in the world - and imagine how to take that forward in our own lives. “At its essence, How We Save The World is full of hope. We hope people will leave and have new conversations with one another that could be the beginning of a change" - Michelle McMahon, Director "We show up. We get involved. We make better choices. We give it quality time. We play with less selfish intentions. We do the community work. And we believe in rainbows. #howwesavetheworld #NHMlates #museumlates // thank you @agencyofconey" - Audience Member, How We Save The World 2018 How We Save The World is a story game by Coney, created in collaboration with environmental scientists and the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC), first presented in 2018 at The Natural History Museum, London, now re-imagined as a live online performance for our new global context.
