Bursting the Climate Bubble
Bursting the Climate Bubble
June 23 @ 5:00 pm – 6:30 pm BST
A lively, interactive session on building broader, braver and more unexpected coalitions for climate action.
Climate events often bring together the same people, saying the same things, to people who already agree.
If we are serious about climate action, we need to break out of the bubble and ask: who is missing, who has the power to shift things, and how do we build coalitions that actually move the needle?
Hosted by Climate KIC Community, B Lab and Metta, this session is all about connecting beyond the usual climate crowd. We’ll explore how businesses, corporates, community organisations, creatives, campaigners, policymakers and other less obvious allies can work together more responsibly, more bravely and more effectively.
What you’ll get from the session:
- A sharper look at who is in the climate room, who is missing and why that matters
- Honest provocations on power, credibility and responsibility in collective action
- Fast, facilitated networking to help you meet unexpected allies
- Practical ideas for building coalitions that are broader, braver and less boring
- Space to challenge assumptions, swap perspectives and escape the climate echo chamber
- Light catering, good conversations and hopefully zero performative networking
Come ready to burst the bubble, meet unlikely allies and rethink who climate action is really for. Most importantly, come ready to share what you can offer and what you are looking for.
