Carbon Awareness is a short course, enabling participants to explore questions around engaging with climate change in church life. This course is split across two evenings. It cover fours key questions:

  1. Why does reducing our use of fossil fuels matter so much?
  2. What changes can we make that make the most difference?
  3. How we can encourage others to get involved?
  4. How does this fit into the whole of church life?

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 course will be held across two evenings at the The Exchange, Brick Row, Stroud, Gloucestershire, GL5 1DF

Participants will need to spend 20 minutes before the course completing a simple carbon footprint tool: https://footprint.wwf.org.uk/
