Our main takeaway from this evening: “Focus on action-based storytelling to encourage climate action” 👇
Thank you so much to Kris De Meyer & Climate Action Unit for an amazing evening.
We absolutely love this by Kris De Meyer Climate Action Unit:
👉 Action inspires action
👉 Getting people to care more about climate change doesn’t mean you’ll get them to act more
👉 Stories of action are the best way to show how serious an issue is & inspire more action.
What are we learning tonight with Kris De Meyer from Climate Action Unit:
👉 5 insights into our brain that help us understand how we think, make decisions & therefore act about climate change
👉 Lots of “golden nuggets” about keeping out climate zen
👉 What or rather how we move forward!
Really excited to learn lots, unlock our climate superpowers and keep our climate zen with Kris De Meyer and Climate Action Unit!
