👋 Learn, Connect, and Act: Elevate Your LA Climate Week with Climate Fresk!

Looking for a dynamic and engaging way to deepen your understanding of climate change during LA Climate Week? 🌎 Whether you’re new to climate science or already knowledgeable, our Climate Fresk Workshop offers the perfect blend of learning, networking, and fun.

Understanding the complexity of climate change is crucial for taking meaningful action. While many of us grasp the basics like CO2 emissions and global warming, this workshop offers a chance to gain deeper insights through a hands-on, interactive experience. You’ll collaborate with fellow participants to piece together the full picture of climate change.

With guidance from our experienced facilitators, you'll join a small group to explore the connections between causes, effects, and potential solutions. This 3-hour afterwork session transforms the complex scientific concepts from the latest IPCC reports into a dynamic learning experience filled with accessible insights. By the end, you’ll be equipped with a nuanced understanding of climate change, giving you the edge to fully engage in the week’s events.

👉 How the Game Works

Please Note: This is a 3-hour group activity that requires your full participation to ensure a rewarding and enjoyable experience for everyone.

The workshop centers around a collaborative game featuring 42 cards, each representing a cause or consequence of climate change. Under the guidance of a trained facilitator, your team will work together to map out the cause-and-effect relationships between these elements. Through this step-by-step approach leveraging your group’s collective intelligence, you'll uncover the complex and interconnected nature of climate change.

No prior knowledge is required. Our facilitators will guide you through each step, and you'll tackle the challenge as a team. We're aiming for an engaging blend of learning, creativity, and fun!
