[Project number: 2020-1-CY01-KA202-065983] Scenario 2 Content Learning Outcomes Through this simulation scenario, the participants (private entities and entrepreneurs) are expected to acquire deep knowledge, skills and competences relative to the broader issue of climate change and its impacts. Particularly, at the end of the simulation participants will: [Knowledge] − learn about the measurement methods and scales of GHG emissions, how the carbon footprint of a business is estimated, as well as which are the basic practices for reducing GHG emissions − be acquainted with how they can increase their corporate green image and acknowledge the produced benefits − recognize why there are penalties/fines due to excessive GHG emissions production and how to act in order to avoid them − comprehend specialized documents-reports on GHG emissions quantification − be acquainted with the methods/ways to improve or gain a strong competitive advantage through applying green practices [Skills] − apply a simple carbon footprint measure technique − apply energy saving practices and use technology applications to reduce GHG emissions production − estimate the costs reduction by saving energy and use relative technology applications [Competences] − provide information to the important stakeholders, about their efforts to reduce energy consumption and production processes − provide feasible solutions at micro level that correspond well to the regional climate change conditions, so as to reduce costs and increase the corporate green image − adopt more green practices throughout the life cycle of a product or a service delivered to avoid penalty-fines and improve competitive advantage − negotiate with local stakeholders influenced by climate change impacts, as well as with the regulators of green policies to increase corporate green image − Comply with the current energy saving policies and measures Number of Participants Three roles are planned to be represented by groups of three (or more) participants, who will argue for their interests, but they will speak out as a single delegate. All of the delegates are concerned with the climate change issue and its impact but for different reasons. Some will have strong records of environmental protection and emissions reduction actions, or ideas that will attempt to support vividly. Others will be concerned about the potential loss of jobs or revenue and the worsening of their interest by taking actions against climate change. Duration 2-3 hours allocated per stage:
