World Climate is an interactive simulation of the international climate negotiations.

Participants, will play world leaders who must produce a global agreement to reduce CO2 emissions enough to limit global warming to 2°C by 2100. Join us on May 5th to experience what it’s like to negotiate a climate deal and address the greatest human and environmental challenge of this century.
