That time of the year is here again! After exams, first year students will leave university accommodations and will leave behind tonnes of unwanted stuff. We, as waste super-heroes, will be collecting all of it and preventing the dark side of waste/landfill taking over.

Carbon Conversations – Facilitator Training May 2012 in Glasgow

written by Joseph Farthing on April 24, 2012

Carbon Conversations has now had over 1200 participants across the UK, over 500 of those in Scotland, with average immediate savings of over 1 tonne per person. You will have some facilitation experience, be passionate about facilitating change in your community, and recognise the benefits of doing so through a values and emotions-based course.

This two-day training for facilitators is being held to support community groups across Scotland who wish to begin their own Carbon Conversations groups. Pam McLean and Jean Langhorne are offering this course and are very experienced facilitators and environmentalists. They are Designated Trainers for facilitators of Carbon Conversations and have facilitated several Carbon Conversations groups between them.

Come to the follow-up TEU meeting!

Since last May, after 18 months of much buzz and excitement as a funded project, Transition Edinburgh University has been looking for a new direction. On the 9th of March, we talked about what role TEU could come to fulfil and whether it should become a University society or continue in another form.

Would you like to be part of the Edinburgh University Transition Society?
