The 2 degrees tour -- a unique climate change experience
Ontario Sept 20-30 -- Western Canada Oct 1-20 -- Ontario/Quebec Oct 21-30 -- Maritimes Nov 1-17

The 2 degrees tour will help mobilize public support for a strong climate agreement in Copenhagen, and for the massive and sustained cultural shift that is essential for resolving the climate crisis. The tour will feature 2degreesC founder, David Noble, in 30-40 events across the country. Drawing on his diverse and unique experiences over the last 6 years, David will share stories and inspiration about the possibilities for transcendent citizens responses to climate change. Many events will also include presentations or commentary from distinguished guests.

The tour comes on the heels of a major international agreement to limit global warming to a maximum of 2 degrees C, and less than 100 days before the Copenhagen climate negotiations, where 192 countries are to thrash out a global agreement to avert catastrophic climate change. This is a historical occasion – the outcome of which will shape the course of human development forever.
History needs you. Be a part of it!
Think you’ve heard it already?
Think again! This isn’t a facts & figures presentation on climate change. You will hear a story of stories that is engaging, inspiring and hopeful. It will make you think and it will make you feel, it probably will make you laugh, and it might make you cry. It might even make you want to do something – to really do something.

See the attached tour information brief for more info, or visit www.2degreesC.com.
…or that it’s not for you?
We are especially keen in connecting with audiences who might not normally come to a climate change event. The climate change issue is now so big and so urgent that we need everyone acting in every way possible. That’s why, if you are not one to normally help make this type of event happen, we especially need you! You can help us access people that we could not otherwise reach.

Want to (co-) host?
We are looking for partners and organizers in communities across Canada to (co-) host events. Find or share a venue, rally your local partners, and together do your very best to fill it with anyone and everyone you think could use some hope. Contact us about (co-) hosting a school-/university-based or community event.
Want to sponsor one or several events or contribute in-kind?
We have a great sponsorship offer for national, regional / multi-event and single event sponsors. See page 5 of the attached tour information brief for more info.
If you can’t contribute financially, you can still pitch in. At the moment, we could use some additional support in marketing (especially in new media), fundraising and media strategy/liaison. You can always, always, always promote the tour and specific events amongst your networks.
Simply curious?
Then stay tuned! We'll be sending updates over the next weeks.
