About this Event

Two days. One planet. Your move.

Step into a live-action storytelling game where climate science meets ancestral memory. Choose a problem, build a solution, and craft a world worth inheriting. Back to the Climate Future is a two-day workshop where you'll team up, map narratives like quest lines, and play out futures that honour both the world as it was and the world as it could be. The climate crisis is the final boss — come ready to write the strategy guide your descendants will actually need.

What to Expect

General agenda
16-17 April (10:30-17:00 both days)

  • Discussion + Activity: Map the Problems + Solutions
  • SolarPunk Futures: An intro to imaginative climate visions
  • Story Space: Part I
  • Paired visions
  • Story space: Part II
  • 1:1 development sessions
  • Past regressions to align ancestry with present climates
  • Practice story solutions

You are a future ancestor. How do you want to be remembered?

A safe, co-created environment is maintained throughout both days for all welcome.

Major perks of these special two days together:

  • 10% of proceeds will be donated to a climate-action NGO of each participant's choice.
  • Developing our collective knowledge of climate change and justice
  • Creating stories that could make our ancestors proud
  • Stories prepared to persuade our world/communities
  • Coffee and tea available all day, both days
  • Vegan lunch and snacks provided both days

About Your Workshop Co-Facilitators

Connor P. McMullen, owner of Policy Mythology and climate-change advocate

  • My brain is usually somewhere in the clouds, but my body spends most of its time these days in The Hague! I am a story engineer, which means I spend most of my time helping people make sense of their stories through workshops, games, and many, many storytelling sessions.

J.W. Nadolski, artist + founder of The Human Prototype Lab

  • My professional life is that of an artist, creative coach and business/change management consultant, currently involved in the community aspect of business ownership. Personally, you can find me outside, at a gym, painting, or with my partner and our two cats.
