Climate change events including lunch and learn

Empowering colleagues to take action on carbon emissions

Carbon Literacy Project - empowering colleagues to take action on carbon emissionsHealth and care colleagues across West Yorkshire are invited to join a free all day online event around carbon literacy to find out more about the scale and urgency to meet NHS net zero and other sustainability targets. The next events are on 26 September and 26 October 2023

To book and for more information see the eventbrite pages. Places are limited so please only book for your preferred day. Upon successful assessment, you will be awarded a uniquely numbered certificate to evidence your carbon literacy, and confirm that you have met the requirements of the Carbon Literacy Standard.


Climate change lunch and learn events series 2

Following the success of the 2021 lunch and learns, we held a 2022 series of events to share knowledge and experience related to NHS sustainability. We heard from experts both within and outside the NHS as we work together to help address the climate and biodiversity emergencies. 

If you missed any of the events or want a recap, we have posted all the recordings from the events on this page. Events took place on a Friday at 12 noon and lasted for one hour.

If you know of someone who would be interested in presenting, or have any ideas for future topics please contact Emma Clarke, Energy, Waste and Sustainability Manager on emma.clarke@bdct.nhs.uk.

Recordings from 2022

In this section we have published all the recordings from series 2.

Climate change lunch and learn events series 1 

Climate Change Lunch and Learn sessionsIn 2021 we joined Humber, Coast and Vale Health and Care Partnership in hosting a series of hour-long educational sessions to address the challenges we face with climate change and the impact this will have on our healthcare system, as well as the populations we serve.
