How to talk to your family about climate change. White text on purple background. Portrait of woman.

Talking about climate change with your family and friends can be challenging but it’s one of the most important conversations we can have. 

With many of us heading home for the holidays soon, this hybrid event offers timely guidance on how to approach conversations about the climate crisis with empathy, clarity and confidence. 

Through interactive activities, participants will learn how to bridge political and generational divides to have constructive conversations about our changing climate. Whether you’re hoping to inspire small changes at home or foster deeper understanding across perspectives, this event will equip you with tools to make meaningful, respectful conversations about climate change possible.
