Climate Fresk: Climate Change in a Game of Cards

Details

The Climate Fresk is a fun, participative yet 100% science-based serious game about climate change.

In just 3 hours, players will work together to connect causes and effects of climate change, learn about the science from the IPCC: the United Nations panel of scientists that has been studying climate change since 1988; and discuss ways to help reduce the effects of climate change.

The workshop is in 3 parts:

1. We play the game;

2. Debrief about the game;

3. Open-ended discussion and brainstorming about actions that can be

taken to address or adapt to climate change.
