Welcome! The latest news from The Carbon Literacy Project...
"Climate change does not respect borders; it does not respect who you are - rich and poor, small and big. Therefore, it is what we call 'global challenges,' which require global solidarity."
~ Ban Ki-Moon, Secretary-General of the United Nations
 11,000 Certified Learners!
Recently, we reached another milestone... 11,000 certified learners. This means that 11,000 citizens are more informed about the impact of our activities on climate change, and have taken 22,000 actions designed to reduce our individual and collective carbon footprint. So far.
More than 800 organisations are now involved, engaging citizens from 10 different nations, and 31 organisations have achieved Carbon Literate Organisation status.
