In addition\, we can compare data from similar sized Charges to your own. \n\n\n\nData collected from the EFT enables the Net Zero team to assist Charges in developing strategies and securing grant funding to reduce their carbon footprint. \n\n\n\nThis webinar will explain why the completion and continued completion of the EFTs are important and what they can tell us. \n\n\n\nUsing graphs and charts\, the webinar will examine the carbon footprint of our Charges at the Provincial and Diocesan levels in various ways\, including both the smallest and largest emitters using banding\, comparing 2023 and 2024 data\, the effects of renewable tariffs\, different types of heating used by the Dioceses\, as well as trends and direction of travel. \n\n\n\nIn addition to presenting our data in various formats\, this is an opportunity to explore what the EFT is revealing and how we can streamline the process for Charges to collect this data.

This is an extended workshop programme of the session offered at some Net Zero Roadshow events. \n\n\n\nThe training workshop is provided by Allan Ramsay\, Community Development Worker for Faith in Community Scotland. \n\n\n\nTo register please email Jack Nevin.
