Birmingham Eco-Teams Training Opportunity
Hello One and All,
It is nearly the end of January! Which means that frost bitten mornings will be replaced by very cold rain/drizzle! YES!!
So in order to brighten up these glum prospects I can happily tell you that there are plenty of Eco-Team Training opportunities for everyone! And you only have slightly more than 20 days to wait.
It is happening on the 20th of February in Birmingham, at this location:
The Birmingham & Midland Institute,
Margaret Street,
B3 3BS
So, the training itself is free and all expenses are paid for Training will only take a day and then you will run an EcoTeams project for 5 to 6 months, working with a couple of households in your local area.
As an EcoTeam leader, you’ll help your team calculate the carbon they produce by measuring their energy and water use, and waste. Then you’ll organise monthly meetings to support them as they change their ways.
At the end of the programme, you’ll help your team calculate how much carbon they’ve saved and throw a party to celebrate. On average, each person reduces their household’s CO2 emissions by 16.6% and saves £148 a year.
If you want to come along, register your interest on the Climate Squad website and you will be sent details on how to apply.
If you cant attend this date, we have some Community Leadership Training taking place in Chester and London, this March. Alternatively, EcoTeams training will be taking place in Manchester, Newcastle, Nottingham and London soon! Keep an eye out on the Climate Squad website.
