Climate Network Think-In

One year on from COP26 and wrapping up COP27 this November in Sharm El Sheikh in Egypt, we know there is still plenty of work to do for the climate agenda.

Bankside is championed for its distinct character and for thinking differently - why should this be any different when it comes to climate crisis?

We're hosting our first Climate Network Think-In to bring Banksiders together as we explore, learn and share ideas for driving climate action.

We'll hear a short presentation from each of our speakers with the chance to explore these topics in more depth through a panel discussion. There will then be an opportunity to share your own ideas through breakout-zones after the presentations are wrapped up.

All whilst enjoying a delicious plant-based lunch!

The Better Air Benches are colourful, moveable benches filled with plants that pop up in different locations across Bankside to raise awareness of air quality. Sadly, the plants inside the benches suffered during the summer heatwave, so we need your help to bring them back to life with a new planting scheme that supports biodiversity and will be more resilient to changing weather patterns. There are two sessions across the afternoon, please choose the time slot that you'd like to arrive from. You're welcome to stay past the finish time of your slot if you'd like to stay longer, or if you only have 15 minutes we'd still love to have you join us. Please bring your own gardening gloves if you have some.
