Carbon Literacy Training will take place on the 21 March 2024, 10am to 4pm. 

Carbon Literacy is defined as: “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.”

Understanding the link between carbon emissions and climate change is an important part of knowing how we can all adapt our behaviour and protect the world.

Funded by DAERA, in association with Keep Northern Ireland Beautiful and Queen’s University Belfast, the course is accredited by the Carbon Literacy Project. The training is designed to offer students an awareness of climate change science, and the climate impacts of our everyday actions, as well as building confidence, knowledge, skills and motivation to empower individuals and organisations to play a crucial role in responding to the climate crisis
