  • "All is not lost when it comes to climate change"

    Carbon Literacy: “An awareness of the carbon dioxide costs and impacts of everyday activities, and the ability and motivation to reduce emissions, on an individual, community and organisational basis.”

    Today, over 14,000 individuals and more than 40 organisations are Carbon Literate. We can now include the C-Change network and some of their city staff to this list. 
     

    As part of the Manchester study visit in October last year,  a bespoke carbon literacy training course was delivered to the network. 
    The original content of the course was updated to respond to the climate emergency and delivered to project partners including representatives from their arts and culture sector. 

    The training was then to be replicated in their own cities and we can hear from Agueda who have already done this successfully.
