Are you ready to be a Climate Champion in Oak Bay?
The District of Oak Bay is excited to launch the Oak Bay Coolkit program. The Oak Bay Coolkit program is a joint initiative between the District and the Collaborative for Advanced Landscape Planning at the University of British Columbia’s (UBC) Faculty of Forestry, and is designed to engage residents on climate-change solutions in the community, with support from the District and community organizations or hubs.
The Oak Bay Coolkit is intended to mobilize individual and neighbourhood climate action through participation in a series of fun and interactive engagement activities, including:
neighbourhood conversations,
local asset and climate vulnerability mapping,
carbon footprint calculators,
visioning exercises, and
developing localized climate action plans.
The ultimate goal of the 3 year Coolkit Program is to reduce carbon footprints and help create climate proof, resilient neighbourhoods.
In Year 2 of the popular Coolkit program, the District is looking for more climate champions in the community who are interested in making a positive difference through developing and promoting household and neighbourhood solutions for climate change.
A climate action workshop will be hosted by the District and UBC to engage, inform, and empower a second group of Oak Bay Climate Champions and youth on how to develop collective action projects in their neighbourhoods. Lunch and refreshments will be served. Participants will join in fun indoor/outdoor exercises for visioning their own future and developing climate action plans in their neighbourhoods. You will also meet Year 1 Oak Bay Climate Champions with tips on what worked for them.
Interested? Get involved!
