Climate Change Boot Camps

No push ups, no 10 km runs. Instead, this Boot Camp is an opportunity to exercise your desire to take action and join other climate change champions at the top of the podium.
Climate Change Boot Camp provides a setting for community members to learn about climate change facts and solutions. The program hopes to develop an army of informed and motivated community champions who can educate and support action on climate change in their communities.
CLIMATE CHANGE BOOT CAMP II
Our second Boot Camp was held on Friday, November 7, 2008 in Winnipeg.
If you are interested in participating in our next camp (some time in 2009), please contact Dean.

What happens at a Climate Change Boot Camp?
Boot Camps are day-long sessions. Trainees will walk away with an understanding of how to
- organize a climate change event
- plan a greenhouse gas reduction activity in their community
- deliver a climate change presentation
Each participant will receive hands-on training from local experts about the science, the impacts in Manitoba and around the world, and the solutions.

All Manitobans are welcome to attend. We do ask each trainee to commit to being a climate champion in their community. This can be through presentations, displays, or initiating action and community projects.
