Join Cate Williams and Julie Nelson for a day of Carbon Awareness Training.
Carbon Awareness is a short 4 hour course, enabling participants to explore questions around engaging with climate change in church life. It covers four key questions:
Participants will leave the course better equipped to make positive changes in their own household as well as feeling more confident to engage both with church, and others to encourage more people to take this seriously.
As a short 4 hour course, Carbon Awareness can either be delivered as a whole or split into two or more sessions. This session will be on Saturday 27 April 2024, 9.30am-3.15pm at St Paul’s Church, Hackett Lane, Thornbury, BS35 3TZ.
Participants will need to spend 20 minutes before the course completing a simple carbon footprint tool: https://footprint.wwf.org.uk/
