1) Earthopoly: If you haven't guessed this game is a twist on the old monopoly game we all loved and played back in the day. This game was designed by Cincinnati-based games manufacturer, Late for the Sky. This board game is similar to monopoly but is instead eco-friendly. How is this game eco-friendly you ask? Well, the entire game is made from either recycled materials or biodegradable materials, even down to the board game. The game pieces are made from completely recyclable materials and the plays wrapping is made from a film that is a bio-plastic. In the game each player is responsible for global landmarks and charges other players carbon credits. These accumulated carbon credits turn into clean air and then help fight against global warming. The player with the most clean air points wins! This eco-conscious game is both fun and informative!
