Game On for Climate Action! (Raleigh-Durham Climate Week)

Climate change is a serious problem. Here's a surprisingly fun way to work on it. Join founders, business leaders, and community partners for a hands-on session with Action to Zero™, a strategy game that turns climate action planning into fast, collaborative decision-making. Participants will work with a scenario to build a climate plan for a Triangle-based company, complete with budget cuts, supply chain curveballs, and a community concern. Together, you'll set priorities, choose real-world strategies, see how a few real Triangle companies are taking action, and leave with ideas for your organization's next steps.
