One of the most important actions we can take in our daily lives is to talk about climate change with people in our lives.
Join us on Thursday, March 3, from 12-1 p.m. (MST) for our first Climate Conversations skills workshop where we will learn and practice skills to have effective climate conversations with our family, friends, and colleagues. Capped at 20 participants.
“Thank you very much for this discussion. It has all been helpful with my concerns, to find my place. I look forward to action and conversations.”

What does talking affect?
Last spring Katharine Hayhoe (climate scientist and expert climate communicator) shared that it is absolutely critical to making a big impact. Imagine a circle of dominoes:
"To fix climate change, we have to knock over all the dominoes. What's the first domino? The first domino is having a conversation. Having a conversation triggers all of the other dominoes: to change what we think of ourselves, what people around us think, our social norms in our community, in our town, in our state, in our country, in our world; our sense of whether we actually can change anything, and ultimately, our ability and willingness to act."
