This academic year, Climate Literacy induction was offered to all incoming students, the first time this was ever attempted anywhere in the UK. Over 100 staff and students went on to complete Climate Literacy training and receive accreditation from the Carbon Literacy Project: https://carbonliteracy.com/.
