35,000 children protest in Brussels over climate change, 'Yellow Vest' protest against carbon tax goes into 10th weekend in France, and here in Netherlands, politicians, environmental and professional organizations are distancing themselves from the Climate Accord -- how does climate change make you feel? It is time to Take Control of Your Climate.

Invite your friends and family to a fun and interesting dialogue. Join a positive and relevant discussion about climate change with expert in a supportive environment.

The one-hour dialogue provides you with opportunities to discuss topics including:

• What does climate change mean in the context of the Netherlands and your work/life?
• If climate change worries you, how can you reframe your mindset differently to take better control over it?
• How can you take control of the issue at a professional and personal level, given the related bigger scale efforts?

Additional benefits for participants include:

• Create new ways of looking at the climate change problem, which help move towards effective climate change discussions at your work and within your community
• Better understanding on the topic at a personal or organizational level that matters to you
• Increased awareness of resources and networks available to help you, your work and your community adapt to climate change
