"The Earth is not dying, it is being killed. And the people who are killing it have names and addresses."

Environmental activist, labor organizer, rebel folk singer Utah Phillips

We're collectively in the grip of a polycrisis–a reality where disparate crises interact such that the overall impact exceeds the sum of each part.

The climate crisis, the crippling debt facing families and nations alike, the rise of authoritarianism, and wars in Gaza, Ukraine, and elsewhere aren't just happening on their own. Those responsible and those with the power to do the right thing have names, titles, and 8 billion people to answer to.

The Polycrisis Power Players deck was developed by the Glasgow Actions Team in 2024 and represented those responsible for the overlapping crises at the time.
