As businesses work to reduce their carbon emissions, employee engagement becomes a critical factor in achieving real, lasting change. When employees actively participate in sustainability initiatives, they help drive progress. But how can companies make carbon reduction engaging?
One effective approach is through gamification.
The Eco Action Games: Higher or Lower Tournament
Rio has partnered with eco action games to offer the Higher or Lower Tournament, a fun and educational game that challenges players to guess which action or product has a higher carbon footprint. This simple, competitive format helps employees better understand the carbon impact of everyday activities, fostering awareness in an engaging way.
This game is an excellent standalone tool for raising awareness, and it’s flexible enough for remote, in-office, or hybrid teams. It’s also a perfect complement to formal sustainability training, like Carbon Literacy, where employees can better understand climate change and learn strategies to reduce carbon emissions.
"I am excited that Rio has partnered with Eco Action Games to bring their Higher or Lower Tournament to our platform! This collaboration represents an exciting opportunity to engage employees in a fresh, interactive way while educating them about the importance of reducing carbon emissions. Combining the power of gamification with our comprehensive learning and data solutions can make sustainability both fun and impactful." - Nick Garrod
