Training of Trainers
Together We Are Stronger
Once we start to be aware of the what is happening with our planet; the air we breathe, the water we drink, the food, our oceans and forests, the spices that are going extinct, we start to talk about it with friends and colleagues; we become trainers on climate change.
Many of us feel shy to talk about the climate and don’t want to interfere with other people’s thinking. In Outreach we develop our knowledge and confidence and together we make this movement grow.
However, we must not forget, the most effective way to influence is to be a role model; be the good example and show it is possible.
On this page we present materials to use to orient and inspire friends,
colleagues and others to Take Climate Action.
