** Last chance to book **<\/em><\/p>\n

Our second round of Carbon Literacy training is open for bookings across the Midlands.<\/p>\n

Museum Development East Midlands (MDEM) and West Midlands Museum Development (WMMD) are partnering to deliver several rounds of training, using the Carbon Literacy for Museums Toolkit<\/a>\u00a0developed by Museum Development and the Carbon Literacy Trust as part of the national\u00a0Roots and Branches<\/a>\u00a0project.<\/p>\n

What is a Carbon Literacy course?<\/strong>\u00a0The Carbon Literacy course will give you an understanding of what climate change is, the scale of its effects, and how museums fit into the global, national and local picture to address climate change. You become Carbon Literate by making an individual pledge, and an organisational pledge to take back to your museum, of what you can do, and is in your power to achieve, to make a significant difference to your carbon impact.<\/p>\n

The course is made up of four modules \u2013 the first module is pre-recorded and there are three Zoom sessions.<\/p>\n
