Carbon Literacy for Local Authorities

Tailored specifically to UK local government, (County, Borough, Town & Parish Councils), LA toolkits provide a basic understanding of climate science and local impacts of a warming world.

Facilitated activities focus on the co-benefits of climate action and how local authorities are well placed in their community to effect change directly and indirectly through various levers of influence.

Ask about versions for elected members, leaders and staff.

Carbon Literacy for Education, Universities and Colleges

Equip our next generation of workforce and leaders with knowledge about climate impacts and the tools to influence change, bridging a much needed gap in the curriculum to date.

As with all courses, some of the content is customisable, and we continue to work with some of the further educational establishments across the country, for whom we have delivered this toolkit.

We’re currently working on designing courses for primary and secondary schools. Contact us for more information:
