Climate Solutions Workshop<br />

What will it take to solve the climate crisis? The West Kootenay<br />

Climate Hub is offering an interactive workshop to<br />

the community using the cutting-edge simulation model<br />

En-ROADS to explore that question. The workshop will be<br />

held at the Nelson Public Library on Monday, November 6,<br />

7pm as part the library’s Climate Action Week.<br />

Together participants will test ideas on how to keep global<br />

heating to the goals of the Paris Agreement, while getting a<br />

better understanding of how climate, energy and land systems<br />

are interconnected. As well, considerations of equity<br />

and health and well-being impacts will be raised to capture<br />

the whole picture. Participants will discuss how to take your<br />

insights to your family, friends and colleagues to help accelerate<br />

climate action.<br />

Laura Sacks, who will lead the workshop, has helped to<br />

found and co-lead the West Kootenay Climate Hub. She is a<br />

trained Climate Reality Leader, and is the 2019 recipient of<br />

the Suzie Hamilton Legacy Award. Anni Holtby, Chair of the<br />

Nelson Public Library and co-facilitator, is keenly aware of the<br />

role libraries play as a hub for information and community<br />

building. Libraries are a critical part of the response to our<br />

climate crisis.<br />

Sacks is passionate about presenting workshops using<br />

En-ROADS. “What I really enjoy about hosting these workshops<br />

is that no two are alike, as participants get to decide<br />

which policies are needed for a safe climate future. I also love<br />

considering what gets better by implementing climate solutions<br />

-- it doesn’t have to be about loss,” says Sacks.<br />
