Boost Employee Engagement and Retain Top Talent with Climate Action Training

72% of Gen Z employees and 71% of millennials assess environmental credentials when choosing an employer (Deloitte). Carbon Literacy aligns your brand with their values — turning concern into action, and disengagement into shared purpose. One day's worth of training, peer-delivered, designed to integrate into your existing L&D programmes.

Today, over 163,116 individuals from over 14,408 organisations are Carbon Literate.

Surveys won't fix disengagement.

Answer three quick questions about your current engagement approach.

1. Do your engagement scores plateau no matter how many initiatives you launch?

2. Are Gen Z and millennial new joiners asking about your climate commitments — and not finding clear answers?

3. Do your sustainability and HR programmes run in siloes rather than reinforcing each other?

If any answer is 'Yes', Carbon Literacy is the bridge. The UN recognised training framework that combines climate action with workforce engagement.

Since the training, staff engagement on climate change has soared. Employees now feel more confident discussing climate issues with family, friends, and colleagues, creating a ripple effect that continues to spark conversations and action.

— Councillor Margaret Lishman, Burnley Council

Creating space for colleagues to share ideas, reflect, and learn from one another has been especially important as we tackle the climate crisis. Change happens when people feel heard and empowered, and through this training, we've seen incredible discussions emerge, sparking new ideas and reinforcing our shared commitment to sustainability.

— Lee Brown, Senior Learning and Development Advisor, Everyturn

The training empowered [staff] to engage more readily with our sustainable business model and made a big impact on the team. As a result of the training, this work has in itself become sustainable, with people taking ownership of their own responsibilities towards climate change, both in and out of work.
