Climate and Footprint know-how for busy professionals

It's time to meet our climate reality.

In this module, you'll get to know the facts, figures, targets and terminology you need to be up to speed on what is happening with our climate and how it impacts nature, people and our future.

LIVE: Our live exchange will give us a chance to meet each other and set you up for how the course will work.

SELF-STUDY OF THE WEEK: Get oriented with the why, what, when, where, and who of climate change. Calculate your own carbon footprint and take a quiz.

Calculate your footprint and get oriented with how you fit into the climate conundrum. Try a few exercises to understand scale, support your wellbeing and find the personal connection to it all.

LIVE: We'll be answering questions from the week before, then getting to know how a personal footprint works and the common pitfalls anyone can experience. Through a peer-to-peer breakout, you'll identify your motivating factor(s) and choose one thing you will start right away to reduce your footprint.

SELF STUDY OF THE WEEK: A bit of Journaling, a meditation, a few more calculations, a chance to narrow down to define your "Sweet Spot(s)" and a creative assignment to bring your motivation to life. Plus, you'll take another quiz!

Understand Offsets, try on a climate friendly lifestyle and expand your know-how with a few strategies to slow climate change.

LIVE: We'll be covering any questions that came up and have an important group discussion about distraction and the power of money. Before you leave, you'll pick a lifestyle to mentally "try on" for the coming week.

SELF STUDY OF THE WEEK: Independently, you'll get to dig into the 3 strategies for slowing and preventing more climate change, do a Pension Project and take another quick quiz.

Get to know our 7-steps framework that has worked for hundreds to move from fear and worry to action and impact.

LIVE: Report back how your personal reduction experiment(s) are going, and we'll have a group discussion to synthesise the material so far, as well as explore setbacks and wins! Renée will introduce you to the SQUEEZE method to expand your knowledge of even more ways to minimise your personal footprint. 

SELF STUDY OF THE WEEK: Keep up your experiment(s) to reduce and take a Greenwashing quiz. This week you'll be reaching outside your comfort zone by talking to someone about your first footprint reduction step. The self-study is slightly lighter this week so that you can catch up in case you find yourself falling behind.

Prepare your trusty roadmap to follow, stay focused and feel at ease knowing you're transforming along with the climate.

LIVE: Our last session together! We’ll make sure all questions are cleared up, that you feel equipped to continue your journey with all the new resources at your fingertips and each participant can share their hopes (and reservations) for the future.

SELF STUDY OF THE WEEK: You are invited to fill out your whole SQUEEZE sheet and (optionally) submit it to Renée for review if you’d like an objective critique. We also provide you with other materials to continue your learning and start applying this new knowledge to your other life and work domains.

FEEDBACK: Maven will also send you an end-of-course feedback form which we would greatly appreciate you filling out! Thank you for your engagement!
