Every year, UK companies waste £2 billion just by leaving electrical equipment on. That’s costly for them and the environment, adding up to 26.7 million tonnes of carbon.
As a Greener Business Leader, you’ll show employees from a local business how to measure their environmental impact. You’ll meet with your team regularly over six months to help them cut energy use by an average of 12% and waste by 28% through recycling, and save money for the business at the same time.
If you think you’ve got what it takes to help a local business to become more sustainable, you will first attend Climate Squad’s free community leadership course in London or Chester, March 2010. You’ll learn all about climate change and how to lead your own environmental project. As a leader, you’ll develop a range of skills and experience, and could work towards getting a BTEC qualification for your CV.
