Climate Geopardy (recording)
Climate Geopardy is an interactive workshop designed to teach players about the climate crisis in a fun and engaging way. All are welcome to join and win points with their teammates in this Jeopardy-style game by discussing and sharing their ideas on the science, impacts and solutions of climate change. Climate Geopardy has been presented by the Climate Emergency Committee to over 25 high school, CEGEP and university classes and auditoriums since Fall 2019, with enthusiastic support from students and teachers. Feedback from players of this session will help further refine the final product: a resource for any educator to teach about the climate crisis in a novel way.
