We’ve teamed up with Southwark Climate Collective who is partnering with Positive Planet to help you learn more about climate change, what it means for your business and how you can take positive action. This is a full day of training in-person with breakfast and lunch provided. Each business participating in the Southwark Climate Collective is welcome to invite two colleagues along to the training.
What’s on offer?
Carbon Literate individuals understand how climate change will affect them, both geographically and locally. Individuals who receive Carbon Literacy training typically realise carbon savings of 5-15%.
The aims of the course are:

- To acquire a sense of urgency about the climate emergency.
- To know how you can reduce your carbon footprint.

This course is the equivalent of 8 hours of CPD training and requires attendees to carry out tasks prior to attending the in-person course. During the course, attendees will need to complete a personal and corporate pledge, which will be submitted to the Carbon Literacy Project for assessment and certification.
