About this event
Is your organisation keen to take action on climate and reduce its emissions, but is yet to make a start? Do you feel unsure what first steps to take? If so, our Getting Started programme has been designed for you.
We know that getting started with climate action can feel overwhelming, particularly for smaller organisations. As part of theClimate Action Programme, we developed the Getting Started programme with our consultancy partnerEunomia, to help organisations on their way.
It consists of three group workshops with tasks to complete in-between, to provide participants with a solid grounding in the steps needed to start taking effective climate action. The workshop topics are:
- Jargon busting and demystification: Monday 11 May, 1:45 - 4.45pm
- Measuring and monitoring carbon footprint: Monday 15 June, 1:45 - 5pm
- Creating a climate action plan and setting targets: Monday 6 July, 1:45 - 4.45pm
Our aim is for participants to finish the programme with a carbon footprint baseline and an understanding of how to create a climate action plan and their next steps.
The programme is limited to a small group of organisations, with each able to send up to two members of staff. We will be prioritising SMEs that have not yet started with climate action and are committed to taking the first steps, and those that are in the Bristol BID area.
Please register your interest by 17 April, 12pm. We will let you know if you have a place by end of day 24 April. In the meantime, please hold the workshop dates in your diary.
If you have any questions, please contact jasmine@bristolclimatenature.org
