Happy holidays! Yes, exceptionally well done, what you have accomplished with your approach to the hobby. You have been the first channel to my attention that pushed forward the conversation and awareness about sustainability in the board game hobby and industry. And now it seems to spread in the youtube hobby channel sphere in this past year. What I especially like and what touches me very deeply is, that I get the message of the "little steps matter" but you also share your sensibility and worry. At least that is what I sense. You take the worrisome topics and put them on a constructive rail, so to speak. That is very strong and inspiring! Thank you for showing this to the world and to me!
I was missing content and also just information on board games and sustainability - so happy to just have found you and - as you said- not being alone! I look forward to watch all your other sustainability-related videos now, I am sure I will learn a lot.
Great video Jona! I think all of us can grow to become better on this. I started a bit ago trying to get most of my games (I wanted to go only but let's not fool myself) in 2nd hand. I know it is worst for publishers, but was the way I found to get games I wanted going through less resources. I know this is only a small step, but was something I did. My next step is to be more aware and informed which parts I can actually recycle when I through out games components (inserts, punch boards, ...) For a while I though I could recycle punchboards peeling out the first layer. I found out later that is not 100% true. So I need to get more informed. About spotUV: I never got why that became a trend in games... I still don't care if a cover has it or not and I can't see at which point it started to be a thing. For me it could disappeared as fast as it showed up.
Buying second hand might be on the best things we can do as consumers, no matter that what it is, as it will always save something from going to a landfill. And fortunately sharing games and reselling them is a very strong habit for most gamers! Its one of our sustainable strengths :) Thanks for sharing Mario
Outstanding work! Love the reflection and the learning. It's how we grow a movement.
