Climate change is a scary notion.
Wouldn’t it be wonderful if you could discover ways of taking direct action?
Cedric Ringenbach, a French engineer, came up with an ingenious idea. He came up with an interactive game, Climate Fresk, that works with the general public and organisations to bring them on board with the climate transition and their mission is to educate the public. In doing so participants are given the opportunity to take constructive and direct action to help tackle climate change. Their ambition is to create a network of people who are able to grow exponentially and share the knowledge on climate change and in doing so reach a social tipping point that will help guide us to a low carbon world. They’ve had 1.5 million participants so far!
How does this work?
The general public is welcome to attend a 3hrs workshop either in person or online. A facilitator – a Climate Fresk volunteer – will teach the participants how climate change works, and empower them to take effective action as a citizen (a maximum of 20 participants per facilitator is permitted). Companies are also welcome to sponsor employees and specific workshops bring together participants from different companies where they are able to explore the levers of action. Within a professional context.
