Climate conference business game for companies

The climate conference simulation from myclimate Germany is a business game that we offer you as a company workshop. Let your employees slip into the roles of political delegates and experience in a practical way what climate protection efforts are necessary to achieve the Paris Agreement.

 

The interactive conference simulation gives all participants a realistic impression of the climate policy hurdles and opportunities facing our world. Will your team, your department, your company together succeed in limiting global warming to below 2°C? Take up this company challenge!

Divided into up to 8 different interest groups representing industry, environmental organisations and politics, the participants simulate a climate protection conference. The goal of all groups is to meet the internationally agreed 2°C target for the year 2100. The voluntary commitments submitted by the countries are not sufficient to achieve this goal at the present time. Improvements must be made here. This will be simulated in the negotiation rounds. Each stakeholder group must decide on and present concrete targets in the debate with the other stakeholders.

Professional calculation software then determines whether the goals are sufficient or whether they need to be adjusted in a further round. Since the individual groups naturally also pursue their own interests, this is a difficult undertaking. Only if everyone pulls together can (still) realistic solutions be found to cope with the 2°C target. Practical and interactive, the challenge of climate change for the 21st century as well as the urgency and necessity of large-scale international climate protection measures are thus made clear.

 

The climate conference simulation by myclimate was a completely successful employee workshop for us as part of our annual kick-off event. The myclimate speaker introduced our employees to the complex topic of climate change in a refreshing and interactive way. Particularly interesting was the evaluation of the jointly developed results with the professional software. All participants were very pleased and interested.

The employees ...

  • ... are encouraged in their team spirit and collaboration by this business game.
  • ... recognize global warming as a worldwide challenge that future generations will have to face.

  • ... actively understand the complexity of political decisions on emission reductions, negative emissions and international climate financing.
  • ... discuss justice dimensions (intra- as well as intergenerational justice).

With these learning goals, the climate conference simulation also contributes to the sustainability goals of the UN (Sustainable Development Goals / SDGs). In addition to SDG 4 "High Quality Education" and SDG 13 "Climate Protection Measures", other sustainable development goals are addressed, including, for example, reducing inequalities between countries or promoting international partnerships to achieve the sustainability goals.
