Ludlow Quaker Meeting holds a Climate Fresk 

John Cherry

Promoting discussion about the climate emergency and actions we can take in our communities

In November Ludlow Quaker Meeting House members invited Sue Burnell and Kev Oubridge along to facilitate a half day Climate Fresk workshop using information cards based on data from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change  (IPCC) reports. 


This event was approached with some foreboding: could a game with cards be serious? It turned out to be both serious and thought-provoking. We used the cards to link the causes of climate change and its effects, for example the melting of glaciers leading to rising sea levels and flooding. Coming just before the terrible floods in Valencia, our pictures seemed prophetic. There was intense and noisy discussion and it became clear that the card labelled ‘Human Action’ was the root cause.  Although there was little time to discuss practical action, it was clear that we should now address how our Meeting House could made more sustainable.
