Carbon Literacy & Hospitality: From Awareness to Impact
Join us for a practical discussion on how Carbon Literacy can support hospitality businesses to engage teams, develop leaders and take meaningful low carbon action.
This session will explore what Carbon Literacy is, why it matters for the hospitality sector, and the business benefits of building carbon awareness across your organisation. We’ll also share Vision’s experience of implementing Carbon Literacy and the value of becoming a Carbon Literate Organisation (CLO).
With insights from Carbon Literacy Project and local sector voices, the event will highlight lessons, opportunities and next steps for hospitality businesses across Greater Manchester.
