"The Week" Climate Action experience

Event Details

The Week is a powerful group experience that sparks real conversations about the climate crisis, what it means for us, and what we can do about it.

Too often, this issue feels abstract and overwhelming. The Week is a way to engage this issue, for real, with our friends, family or colleagues. It doesn’t tell us what to do but empowers us to make up our own minds. So that we can say down the line: I knew what I needed to know, I did what I need to do, and I have no regrets.

We’ll meet three times (April 27th, May 4th, and May 18th) , each to go through a 60-minute documentary, and have a 30-minute group conversation to make sense of it all.

Day 1 (April 27th) - learn the reality of what’s happening to our climate.

Day 2 - (May the 4th) Understand the situation and how to change course

Day 3 - (May 18th) Get inspired to take action!

What is the Week?

•

A group experience
Don’t do The Week alone. It’s an experience you do with friends, family or a group of colleagues. Because it’s helpful to engage with a topic as big as the climate crisis with a small group of people you know, and not be on your own.

•

3 episodes & conversations
You get together 3 times, during a week (hence “The Week”). Every time you watch a 1 hour documentary film episode. And then the heart of the experience: a guided conversation for 30 minutes (or more if you want) to make sense of it all.
‍

•

A ”U”-shaped journey
Be prepared for a ride! It’s shaped like a “U”. Episode 1 is the hard one where we go down the “U” and look straight at what’s coming, without blinking. In episode 2, we make sense of it all. And episode 3 gets us up the “U”, it’s empowering and inspiring.

•

No polar bears
We won’t be talking about polar bears or ice sheets melting. The Week is about what is likely to happen to us and the people we love, in the next 10, 20 or 30 years, in parts of North America and Europe. And what we can realistically do about it.
