Carbon literacy has an important role in the United Kingdom’s (UK) goal of net zero emissions by 2050. In partnership with The University of Worcester (UW) and The Worcestershire County Council, shortened Carbon Literacy workshops were created and delivered in Worcestershire libraries. To create the workshops, key concepts were identified from the Carbon Literacy Project (CLP). Twelve workshops were delivered, two workshops at each of the six libraries in Worcestershire County. One workshop was developed for adults and one modified for families with children aged four to eight. All the family workshops had at least two families attend. Two adult workshops had attendees, with attendance varying between one and seven. Recommendations included using student volunteers from UW to deliver and facilitate the workshops, that carbon literacy material be added to all community libraries, and that the workshops be marketed with incentives.
