Description
Are you worried or concerned about climate change? Does the climate crisis make you anxious? Want to take local climate action but don’t know how or where?
Join our Climate Cafe at the Brooklyn Public Library (BPL) to discuss everything related to the climate crisis (including how it makes you feel). Whether you're a concerned New Yorker, an activist, or just curious about the topic, this community-organized space is for you. According to Force of Nature, as 70% of young people feel climate anxiety and 56% believe humanity is doomed, we urgently need spaces to navigate our climate emotions and translate them into action.
Come and have open and meaningful conversations about the climate crisis; share your ideas, listen to inspiring talks, learn about local initiatives and emotional resilience tools and connect with like-minded individuals. Join us to become a part of a network of thousands of activists and concerned individuals through climate cafés worldwide.
