Carbon Literacy is "an awareness of the carbon dioxide costs and impacts of everyday activities and the ability and motivation to reduce emissions on an individual, community and organizational basis." By completing the training and providing sufficient evidence of your participation, understanding, and action, you will earn a certificate in Carbon Literacy from the Carbon Literacy Project and IGC. Schedule 9 a.m. - 6 p.m., Thursday, April 2, 2026 Breakfast and lunch will be provided. Overview This action-oriented training is designed for community members who are concerned about the climate crisis and want to take ambitious action to reduce reliance on fossil fuels. If this describes you, please join us! The training uses San Diego-specific case studies and is accredited by the Carbon Literacy Project, the UK-based international accreditation body for Carbon Literacy. Topics include greenhouse gases, their potencies, the carbon cycle, disproportionate causes and consequences of the climate crisis, self-care, and strategizing for individual and collective impact. Price The fee is $295 and includes the Carbon Literacy Project evaluation and certification fee. If your evidence of training engagement, understanding, and action is determined to be insufficient, we will work with you to provide the Carbon Literacy Project additional evidence through a structured answer paper. Please note that reassessment entails an additional processing fee and becoming certified Carbon Literate is not guaranteed. We have made every effort to keep the fee as low as possible while covering administrative expenses. If the fee is a barrier to your participation, we particularly want you to be part of our Carbon Literacy community and encourage you to apply for a full or partial scholarship. Thanks to generous donors, we have a limited number of scholarships. If you are awarded a full or partial scholarship, you must commit to completing all training requirements including the Participant Details and Evidence Form. You will receive guidance and support in completing the form throughout the training. If you have any questions, please email us at carbonliteracy@igc.earth. In Good Company on Facebook / Instagram
