What I appreciated most about this course was the convenience of being fully online, which allowed me to participate from anywhere. The workshops were in-depth and engaging, and provided me with the invaluable opportunity to engage in extensive Q&A with the facilitator. I am truly thankful to Net Zero Literacy for providing this opportunity. The course equipped me with essential knowledge and skills to contribute effectively to sustainability initiatives in the tourism sector. I highly recommend Net Zero Literacy to anyone looking to make a positive impact in their field.”
Michelle Quaglia,
Engineer.
As a tech engineer focused on sustainability in Australia, I cannot recommend this climate literacy training highly enough. In just six hours, it transformed my understanding of climate action and equipped me with invaluable knowledge to advance my professional impact in this space.
Their deep expertise is evident through well curated content, is delivered with remarkable clarity and impact. The facilitator's empathetic approach and evident dedication to addressing the climate crisis, create an engaging learning environment that exceeded my expectations.
The training fundamentally shifted my perspective towards embedding sustainability across all domains of life. It provided a wealth of practical resources, from essential reading materials to actionable tools for emissions reduction, both professionally and personally. Most importantly, it instilled the confidence that I'm part of a larger community with the common goal of working towards a sustainable future for the next generations.
The guidance empowered me with concrete strategies to influence positive change within organisations and communities. This training was truly transformative for my sustainability journey. The time for action is now, and it's these types of transformative actions that will get us where we need to go.

Some of the most important training I have ever done... I thought i knew about climate chnage, carbon reduction and sustainability. I thought we were doing our bit, and then we went on a carbon literacy course. One day out of a busy diary, but boy did it make a difference. I was wrong on so many things that i thought I knew about.
