Join the Movement: Carbon Literacy Training with SAIL

Are you ready to be an agent of change in the cultural and creative sector? SAIL invites you to step into the future with our bespoke Carbon Literacy Training, online on Wednesday 8 Jan 2025.

What is Carbon Literacy?

At its core, Carbon Literacy is about gaining the knowledge and skills necessary to make everyday choices that positively impact the climate. It's an understanding of how carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases influence climate change, and more importantly, what we can do about it.

This training is more than just theory; it's about translating understanding into meaningful, real-world action.

Key Learning Outcomes in Our Training:

  • The Science Behind Climate Change:
    • Grasp the fundamental concepts of climate science.
    • Understand how human activities influence climate change
  • Carbon Footprint Comprehension
    • Learn what a Carbon Footprint is, and the difference between Scope 1, 2 and 3 emissions
    • Identify the most significant contributors to greenhouse gas emissions in the cultural and creative sectors
  • Strategies for Carbon Reduction:
    • Discover ways to reduce carbon emissions in your daily life and within your organisation or creative practice
    • Explore sustainable practices tailored for the creative and cultural industries.
  • Action Planning and Implementation:
