Campus Conversation on Climate Change
Saturday, 29 September, 1-3:30pm
On Saturday, September 29th from 1-3:30pm CMU will be hosting a city-wide “Campus Conversation on Climate Change.”The event is designed to get student input on various practical action items and policy issues. We will be utilizing the principles and practices of deliberative democracy to ensure that we have informed, well structured conversations that are conducive not only in regard to an understanding of the topic but also in regard to an appreciation of a more deliberative approach to our democracy.
Participants receive a Discussion Guide in their registration pack or you may Download Discussion Guide.
The Guide provides a summary of the science of climate change and then looks at three areas to be addressed through the following questions:
- What can we do for our campus?
- What can we do for our community?
- What can we do for ourselves?
