As COP30 concludes, A Level geography students can join us for a practical, high energy and fun workshop session that takes us inside the room where it happens.
Using EN-ROADS - a high-quality model simulation developed by MIT and Climate Interactive - to explore solutions for climate change, you'll learn how different solutions can be implemented to effectively address the challenges that the global climate faces. We'll see what it's like to negotiate a climate treaty, and some of the difficulties that have been faced by Presidents, Prime Ministers and world leaders since they started thirty years ago - can you do better than them?
Led and facilitated by Dr David Preece (former Geography teacher, DfE and EN-ROADS Climate Ambassador), you'll get a dynamic and interactive experience that will help you understand what's possible, and why there is hope for climate futures. Will you have a good COP, or a bad COP?
