Cut Your Carbon 2024
Supported by the Bupa Foundation, Cut Your Carbon is back for 2024!
This month-long, carbon-cutting challenge takes place throughout November. It encourages young people and their families to complete six simple actions to raise awareness and reduce their carbon footprint. The campaign offers free resources, competitions, and online events to make learning about carbon emissions accessible, fun, and engaging.
If you’re in the early stages of your school’s decarbonisation journey, Cut Your Carbon is a great place to begin. Register, get your students and their families involved, and have your staff take part in the webinars to learn more about decarbonisation and how to calculate your Carbon Footprint – by the end of November you’ll be ready to get stuck in to Count Your Carbon!
Check out the information below visit the Eco-Schools website for more about how to take part in Cut Your Carbon.
