Our everyday actions have a significant impact on the environment around us, contributing to challenges, such as climate change and resource depletion. Understanding our environmental impact and adopting sustainable practices is crucial for mitigating these challenges and promoting a healthier planet for future generations.
This course equips you with the understanding and awareness needed to make more sustainable choices and support environmental initiatives within your workplace and local community. Through this training, you’ll gain an awareness of your own environmental impact, exploring how everyday choices, such as the materials you use, the waste you create and the products you buy, impact the environment. The course is suitable for anyone who wants to understand and reduce their environmental impact, including those who have been mandated to take the course by their employer, as well as those taking it out of personal interest. It is not suitable for those who are responsible for creating environmental policies at work.
