​👋 Start Your LA Climate Week with Climate Fresk!

​Are you ready to deepen your understanding of climate change in a fun, engaging way before the official start of LA Climate Week? 🌎 Whether you're a newcomer to climate science or an expert, our Climate Fresk Workshop is the perfect way to kick off the week.

​Understanding the complexity of climate change is crucial for taking meaningful action. While many of us know the basics — like CO2 emissions and global warming — there's so much more to explore at a systemic level. This workshop offers a hands-on, interactive experience where you'll collaborate with fellow participants to build a comprehensive picture of climate change.

​Guided by trained facilitators, you'll join a small group to connect the dots between causes, effects, and solutions. This 3-hour activity, based on the latest IPCC report, turns intricate scientific concepts into a dynamic learning experience. By the end, you'll have a clearer, more detailed understanding of climate change, and a strong foundation for the week ahead.

​🕛 Schedule: Sunday, September 8th, from 12:30 to 3:30 PM
📍 Where: Meadow Fig Co-Working Space, 109 N Ave 56, Los Angeles, CA 90042

​👉 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!
