<h1>The Net Zero Strategy Room</h1>The Net Zero Strategy Room is an immersive experience where you make decisions for a better future.We all know that climate change is a problem, but on our own, it’s hard to know what to do about it, especially when there are so many other things to worry about. We need to work together to come up with a plan. This isn’t about giving everything up - it’s about new technologies, smarter ways of living and a future where we could be happier. Step into The Net Zero Strategy Room. You’re here today to decide on a plan for a better future. You’ll discuss different options with your fellow participants and vote. Can you deliver a successful strategy for Lambeth?You don’t need any special skills or knowledge to take part, and all you need to bring is yourself. You’ll also be paid for your time.
