Climate Change Forum at Lincoln School (28/08/2009)
On 24 August a British Embassy organised Climate Change Forum at Lincoln School for over 200 students from 8 and 9 grade. Presentations were given by Ambassador Tom Kennedy, Peace with Nature Co-ordinator Dr. Pedro Leon, Costa Rican Climate Change Negotiator Kristel Heinrich and a short version of the Odyssey 2047 show was presented by Bruce Callow.
The second part of the Forum featured interactive presentations from a group of young Yale University leaders who travelled to Costa Rica to meet with decision makers at the highest levels of government, press, and civil society to drive action on Climate Change.
