The Climate Train: Preparing for COP21, Communicating our understanding of Climate Change across France

In collaboration with SNCF and numerous partners, the Climate Train will travel across France from 6th to 25th October, stopping in 19 cities, communicating our understanding of climate change issues to the general public in the run up to COP21 that will be held in Paris. The Train has 45 scientists on board (15 per week), 14 institutes and labs represented. 96 seminars will be held on board, 8 high school classes will be welcomed on the train everyday and events are organised for each city. An on-board exhibition on the state of understanding of climate change, both past and future, is designed to be accessible for all, from 10 years old and above.
