For the 4th session we will be breaking into groups to discuss our individual Action Plans. To make the most of the course we would like to place you with others who have similar areas of interests so you can work together.
Please tell us which topic you would like to discuss in the context of your Action Plan.

If you can't find a group that is relevant to your interests, please choose "Other" and share your preferences with us.

https://forms.gle/UkKMheNzcUdTeNhM6

It doesn't mean you have to submit a group project at the end of the course, you can discuss ideas and then work solo on your own Action Plan. We just want to give you an opportunity to get some inspiration and to inspire others. And maybe to form a group that can work together for years to come:)

According to Statista, by 2022, there will be nearly 500 million business trips taken in the U.S. alone. Those business trips add up to a lot of carbon emissions. If you're traveling by plane, train, bus, or gas-fueled automobile. One way to reduce your carbon footprint and cut down on greenhouse gases that contribute to atmospheric warming and climate change is to travel less frequently using modes of transport that aren't energy efficient, and luckily, video conferencing and remote collaboration tools are making it easier to work together, even if you aren't physically together.

To acknowledge Earth Day this year, we wanted to show you how you could drastically reduce carbon emissions by attending some of your business meetings remotely to do your part to reduce greenhouse gases. For example, by attending a quarterly business meeting remotely that you usually travel cross country by airplane to attend in-person, you could save over 10,000 pounds of carbon dioxide from being emitted into the atmosphere.

To use the Meeting Emissions Calculator, plug in details of your meeting and your typical travel itinerary to see what your business travel is costing the environment, and how much carbon dioxide emissions you could save by attending that meeting remotely.

Use this meeting emissions calculator to determine your carbon footprint when you travel for meetings.

We will refresh our knowledge from session 1 by using Kahoot.  For Kahoot, you will see the questions on the screen in Zoom and you will have to choose the answers on Kahoot at the same time. You might want to use your mobile phone or your second screen so that you can still see the Zoom screen at the same time. For your mobile phone, you do not have to download the App - it works fine in the browser.
We will provide you with the PIN to enter the Kahoot quiz in our session.

En-ROADS is a freely-available online simulator that provides policymakers, educators, businesses, the media, and the public with the ability to test and explore cross-sector climate solutions.
Explore the En-ROADS Simulator ❯

En-ROADS is a global climate simulator that allows users to explore the impact of roughly 30 policies-such as electrifying transport, pricing carbon, and improving agricultural practices-on hundreds of factors like energy prices, temperature, air quality, and sea level rise.

Developed by Climate Interactive, the MIT Sloan Sustainability Initiative, and Ventana Systems, En-ROADS is a system dynamics model carefully grounded in the best available science, and has been calibrated against a wide range of existing integrated assessment, climate, and energy models. En-ROADS runs on an ordinary laptop in a fraction of a second, is freely available online, offers an intuitive user-friendly interface, and is available in over a dozen languages.

En-ROADS helps people make connections between things they care about and the possibilities available to help ensure a resilient future. Users can quickly see the long-term effects of the global climate policies and actions they imagine. The goal? To break through the noise and equip elected officials, business leaders, and others with the knowledge they need to implement equitable and high-leverage climate solutions. You can learn more about the science behind the simulator here.

Open the En-ROADS Simulator ❯

Experiencing En-ROADS changes how people think about climate change and how they feel about it at a visceral level. In government offices around the world, in classrooms and corporate boardrooms, we have seen how testing alternate scenarios motivates users to step up and take action. More than 300,000 people in 85 countries-including more than 130 members of the US Congress-have taken the time to use En-ROADS. Beyond the numbers, peer-reviewed studies have demonstrated that those who engage with En-ROADS are empowered to take action, with a strengthened connection and improved understanding of climate issues.

En-ROADS can be used individually online, but it is most often used as part of a facilitated group learning experiences: the En-ROADS Climate Workshop, the Climate Action Simulation game, or the En-ROADS Guided Assignment. These interactive events help participants gain key insights from the simulator, adopt new perspectives, and build grounded hope in a fun and engaging format. These experiences can be offered either in-person or via online platforms, and all materials are free.

We encourage you to join our online trainings to learn more about En-ROADS, its related experiences, and more. Our trainings cover: climate and energy system dynamics, interdisciplinary climate solutions, advanced facilitation tips, and more.

Anyone can lead En-ROADS events

A wide range of people have led En-ROADS events, including several national government leaders, a president of a major philanthropic foundation, chief sustainability officers, university professors, citizen leaders, and educators the world over. Facilitators from diverse backgrounds bring En-ROADS insights to their community through our interactive group experiences.
Anyone with enough interest can learn how to run an En-ROADS event for their desired audience.

En-ROADS Climate Ambassadors

The En-ROADS Climate Ambassador Program is a unique leadership opportunity intended for highly-motivated facilitators who run En-ROADS events. En-ROADS Climate Ambassadors are committed to mastering our tools and spreading data-driven climate insights across the globe. Our team works closely with our Ambassadors to grow our network, run international events, and deliver crucial insights to decision-makers using the En-ROADS Simulator. Joining the Ambassador program is free, and applications are open to any member of the public who has completed the Mastering En-ROADS Trainings program.

If you are interested in having an Ambassador run an event for your group, you can explore our global network and connect with our Ambassadors.

" En-ROADS lit my brain on fire....in one screen, the model communicates the urgency of the climate change threat, powerfully debunks cherished myths, confirmed the importance of current commitments and emphasizes how much more we have to do."

"We found that the Climate Interactive simulator and workshop helped us remove ego from the strategic conversations. It really allowed us to see the interconnectedness of all the solutions so that we could work together and not in isolation. "

"The Simulation engaged leaders from across sectors in an interactive, thought-provoking and solutions-focused discussion about strategies and policies to address global climate change. I think we all walked away with a better understanding of the complex energy and climate system and hope in our collective ability to drive a more sustainable future. "
