Climate and sustainability strategist Marina Psaros joins Jennifer and Kati to explore an unexpected frontier for climate communications: the gaming world.

Marina shares her journey from NOAA scientist to Head of Sustainability at Unity Technologies, and how that experience revealed a massive untapped opportunity. With 3 billion people playing games worldwide, gaming communities have become powerful "third spaces" where climate conversations are already happening, just without professional communicators at the table.

We also explore Marina's beautiful book, The Atlas of Disappearing Places, and why she chose to frame fossil fuel dependence as an addiction rather than an individual moral failing. Learn how this shift from blame to systemic thinking opens up more honest, actionable conversations about climate.
