Carbon Neutral Schools strive to make one step closer to achieving EU Green Deal’s objective to be the first climate neutral continent. During the project digital training materials for education institutions on ways how to reduce Carbon Footprint in their everyday life.
It is important that public institutions act as forerunners in achieving ambitious goals and even more important is that schools are among them, as present pupils are future society that mainly will work for the 2050 objective.

1) developing Factor Maps on factors that influence the willingness to reduce Carbon Footprint
2) developing interactive e-learning modules on ways how to reduce Carbon Footprint in educational institutions and
3) developing a toolkit for Green Ambassadors that will ensure sustainability of the project results as it will act as a main motivational tool to start thinking green and use main project result.
