Big Climate Conversation 2023

In 2023, The Big Climate Conversation took place over the whole of November. 

This year's theme is 'Less Flooding, More Wilding'. 

This year the main 'conversation' is two 40-minute lessons which all teachers lead themselves at any time during November; one classroom based including an online survey and one outdoor investigation into permeability and rain run-off. Students can then apply their new knowledge and findings to borough wide Citizen Climate Science research. There will be differentiated versions for different key stages. 

Free resources for running The Big Climate Conversation in your school or college will be available here, along with other activities, trainings and recommended education schemes taking place linked to COP28.
