Did you know that 70% of carbon emissions across the globe come from people or households? That means there is a huge amount that individuals can do together to address the climate crisis. If you are leading your community to make changes in their own lives to reduce carbon emissions, then please join us! At Giki we run a free programme for people who are leading action in their local communities or networks. You could be a teacher, or a councillor, a climate change ambassador in your local area, or indeed anybody playing a sustainability leadership role within your community.
