Events

Join the University of Waterloo and the Waterloo Climate Institute for a conversation on how we find trusted information on climate action in a sea of misinformation. We’ll discuss ways to overcome the confusing and overwhelming options for climate action and build trust in climate science so that we can build resilient communities and live better together. 

Join the Faculty of Engineering for a talk with visiting guest lecturer, Magnus Galfalk, exploring how to use astronomy technology to accurately measure greenhouse gases.

Join the Climate Institute and the Faculty of Environment for an evening with Chris Turner, the award-winning author of How to Be a Climate Optimist. Turner will share insights from his groundbreaking book, which offers a refreshing and optimistic perspective on the climate crisis. 

Join Dr. Peter Crank from UWaterloo’s Climate Institute for an engaging Climate Science Boot Camp designed exclusively for graduate students and faculty who want to confidently teach climate change. This workshop covers climate science basics, myth debunking, and provides a safe space for questions. Connect with instructors from Waterloo, Laurier, and Conestoga to discuss student needs, explore climate change’s impact across disciplines, and address emotions like hope and despair in teaching. Afterward, network with peers at the Grad House for informal conversation and support.
