Organisation

We believe that organisations - not individuals play the key role in combatting carbon. Somehow, leading organisations say: "It is our world, our resources, our rights, but you turn off the light". It is as if it is your fault. To involve many more people, we need to turn people on , and for that people need to know their roles in relation with the organisations. And most people can do much more than turn lights off - provided they are recognised for it. Join the wiki-debate about who does what.

Science

We try to make sense of the science. It is crucial that the role of science is clearly understood by many more than the scientific community. Science is not always a matter of certainty and judgements must be made where there is uncertainty. We believe many more of us should be scientifically literate to make these decisions.

Skills

We work out the roles as to what people CAN DO in relation to carbon in an organisation according to UK's vocational learning and skills framework. For more organisation and EP@W's skills matrix
