Sustainability & Net Zero Training for Schools

Waste Management and Recycling

When people get rid of their rubbish in the wrong ways, it has serious consequences for the environment. While one discarded crisp packet or plastic bottle may not be the end of the world, eight billion just might be. At your school, it’s essential to promote and encourage proper waste management and recycling wherever you work: among students, staff, parents, and the wider community in order to hit sustainability goals. This course will explain how to do it.
