How to Talk About Climate Change
... and why it's important.
Surveys show that the majority of people worldwide are concerned about climate change – but most of us do not talk about climate change with others. And that's a problem! Climate silence fuels inaction, and we need action now, more than ever.
But how do we bring up this complicated topic? How do we stay grounded? What if we don't have the technical language to talk about climate change?
Join us at a How to Talk About Climate Change workshop!
Workshop dates and locations:
- Thursday, April 9, 5:30 - 7:30 p.m. - South End Halifax, Dal SUB 303 (6136 University Ave)
- Wednesday, April 29, 5:30 - 7:30 - North End Halifax, North Memorial Public Library (2285 Gottingen Street)
In this practical workshop hosted by fellow EACer Kate Brooks, you'll learn:
- how (and why) to talk about climate change in your everyday life
- how to find connection and create a supportive space for conversation
- how to lead with curiosity and avoid getting triggered
- how to make climate conversations a part of your climate action toolkit
