2tonnes workshop in English with the World version

You are convinced of the climate emergency, but you don't know what to do or where to start? Individual or collective actions? Becoming a flexitarian or buying second-hand? Renovating your home or cycling to work ? Getting involved in an association or in your workplace?

You always dreamed about taking a step back and imagine a world scenario for a low carbon transition scenario ? What if you could take actions, not only individually, but at a global level, implicating every countries and major companies ? Would you achieve to reach the goals of the Paris Agreement for Climate ?

This workshop is made for you if you want to understand in a concrete and playful way what it takes for our society to become carbon neutral in 2050. With other participants, you will form a team whose mission is to build a transition scenario to limit climate change to +1.5°C. To do so, you will choose both individual AND collective actions to take in the next 30 years and see thanks to our live simulation after each round of decisions what are the impacts of your choices and how your transition scenario progresses towards the 2050 goal.

At the end of the workshop, you will have an overview of what a transition to net zero means in terms of actions to prioritize at different scales, which actors and sectors will be impacted.

Thanks to your participant account, you will discover the diversity of possible actions and the magnitude of their impact.
