Abstract

A climate summit is similar to a model UN but is entirely focused on climate. During a climate summit students represent different countries, propose resolutions to help solve the problem of global climate change, negotiate with the representatives of other countries, and vote on resolutions. During this session we will discuss how we prepare for the summit, and then participants will go through a mini climate summit to see what it is like. *Participants should have access to a laptop or tablet for this session*
