Climate Leadership Workshop
Scientific research suggests very alarming climate changes, and that we are nearing “tipping points”. Paleoclimatic records suggest that we need to take strong, immediate action. How do we effectively communicate the climate challenge, mobilize stronger action by more people, and help our communities make the transition to safe, clean, renewable energy?
At this workshop you will receive training, background information, and electronic access to a Sustainability Institute PowerPoint presentation that you can use and incorporate for your own educational purposes. These resources and the training have been developed to help community leaders:
¨ Describe the latest climate science and what it means for our lives and the world.
¨ Summarize criteria for solutions that can sustain human civilization and the earth’s species and ecosystems
¨ Identify common emotions and reactions people have to the science, and learn how to respond effectively;
¨ Engage more people in education and action.
