Carbon Literacy for Interested Organisations

Have you heard about Carbon Literacy and want to know what all the fuss is about? Would you like to know more about Carbon Literacy and see how a top class Carbon Literacy Course is run? Currently writing your own course for your organisation and want some ideas?

By popular demand, we are putting on a Carbon Literacy course led by Carbon Literacy Consultant, Sarah McClelland of Great Places Housing Group at Great Places Housing HQ. This will be your opportunity to become certified as Carbon Literate.

The course will cover the basics of climate change science, how we know it’s happening, how climate change will affect us in the future, what we are doing about it and what we can do about it. Lunch is provided, and it is a great way to meet other organisations engaging with Carbon Literacy. Please let us know at the time of booking if you have any special dietary requirements.

Please ensure you choose the correct ticket type for your organisation. We are offering the course at a discounted rate for non-profits and public sector. If you would like to commission a course for your organisation please get in touch.

If you have any queries, please contact us at info@carbonliteracy.com

Carbon Literacy Pioneers

We have organised another Carbon Literacy Trainers ‘Pioneers Network’ meet-up at HOME (2 Tony Wilson Place, Manchester, M15 4FN) in central Manchester.

The Pioneers Network is an informal space for facilitators, trainers and consultants, (formally certified or not), delivering CL training to any audience, to come together to meet, exchange experiences, share best practice from across the UK, set up collaborations, hear from a few expert guests, and get the latest information on the Carbon Literacy movement directly from The Project.

5.30pm+        Our regular but infrequent “Cooler Drinks”, where we simply meet informally and you can meet not just other trainers, but organisations rolling out CL, officers and staff responsible for implementing it, members of the CL team, and other friends from the wider Carbon Literacy network. If you are unable to attend the Pioneers event but can make it to Cooler drinks later on then it would be great to see you there! Do let us know.
