The public carbon literacy program
CARBON SAVVY IS A NEW PROGRAM TO RAPIDLY IMPROVE PUBLIC CARBON LITERACY IN THE FACE OF THE CLIMATE EMERGENCY.
It provides a practical and effective bridge between the general public concerned about the climate emergency and civic action. It provides simple, understandable and clear carbon information which is the first step to carbon reduction, in a positive and hopeful way.
Helping councils respond to the climate emergency
OUR DEDICATED COUNCIL PACKAGE SUPPORTS LOCAL AUTHORITIES IN THEIR ENDEAVOURS TO RAISE RESIDENTS’ CARBON LITERACY AND REDUCE CARBON FOOTPRINTS
Many Councils are prioritising carbon footprint reduction, but have limited capacity to provide structured, well-designed advice to their residents in a cost-effective way. Our dedicated package fills this gap as a turnkey solution for Local Authorities to start educating their residents, without significant resource investment delays. The solution is quick to deploy and fits well with Climate Emergency Response plans.

The Carbon Savvy Handy Guide
A CRITICAL COMPONENT OF THIS PROGRAM IS OUR ‘HANDY GUIDE’ TO SAVING CO2, WHICH CAN BE READ COVER-TO-COVER IN UNDER AN HOUR.
It contains a simple, comprehensive explanation of the significant components of personal carbon footprints and the things you can focus on first to have the fastest and most substantial reduction.
