In a world increasingly focused on sustainability, Carbon Literacy has emerged as an essential tool for businesses seeking to reduce their environmental impact. Carbon Sense understands the value and benefits of Carbon Literacy Training whether for a team within your business, or for your entire organisation.
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.”
Carbon Literacy training is quickly becoming an essential part of how organisations understand, manage, and reduce their environmental impact.
At Carbon Sense, we deliver practical, accredited Carbon Literacy training that equips your team with the knowledge, confidence, and tools to take meaningful action on carbon emissions.
What is Carbon Literacy?
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 level.”
In practice, it means giving your people a clear understanding of how their decisions influence emissions, and what they can do to reduce them.

- Empower teams to make better, lower-carbon decisions day to day
- Support internal engagement and cultural change
