Carbon Literacy for SME’s

What is Carbon Literacy?

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

Carbon Literacy training is a full day program (8hours), the end of which participants have to submit group (workplace/community group) and individual carbon reduction pledges to enable them to become “Carbon Literate” and gain certification. Certification is done independently through the Carbon Literacy Project .

This online course is delivered by Claire Thew from Venture Zero and Annie The Sustainable Life Coach. Both have environmental backgrounds and both are small business owners and fully understand the challenges that many SME’s face.

The course is delivered over 2 half day sessions with a small amount of home learning. All participants will receive a workbook that contains case studies, resources and structured activities so that the support doesn’t end when the training does.
