Climate Solutions

Climate Solutions offers a simple and quick way to gain significant understanding of one of the most important issues of our generation: climate change. It will help prepare individuals and organisations for this transformation, and outline where the opportunities lie.

Sign up to one of our Climate Solutions courses today, and be sure that you are playing your part for the future of the planet.

The Climate Solutions courses were written, designed and implemented by leaders and experts in climate change - a unique collaboration between the Royal Scottish Geographical Society, the University of Strathclyde Business School and the Edinburgh Climate Change Institute, and endorsed by the Institute of Directors.

The Climate Solutions Professional qualification offers learners an easy, time-efficient route to understanding climate change and its relevance to their organisation. Critically, it will explain a range of solutions, and the associated opportunities and challenges, so that participants can consider how to respond appropriately. Four online modules will short-cut vast amounts of literature and learning, providing a good basic understanding of, and confidence in, the science. 

The course consists of four online modules and two workshops. Each module takes three to four hours to complete, and throughout the modules there are sections designed to help you apply it to your own organisation, plus quizzes to help to test your knowledge.

At the final workshop, you will start to develop a Climate Action Plan for you or your organisation. There will also be the opportunity to discuss any sector-specific issues or delve deeper into some of the topics. If your organisation already has a Climate Action Plan, or if you are doing this course as an individual, we will provide alternative development activities. The workshops are run as two half-day sessions, which can be done online or in-person. You can start the modules anytime, and workshops are held regularly throughout the year.

    Sir Ernest Shackleton and T S Eliot’s ‘third man’

    Amid T S Eliot’s long and dauntingly bleak poem, ‘The Waste Land’ is a curious passage describing two people who are attended by an invisible companion. How was this phenomenon, now known as ‘the third man’, inspired by Sir Ernest Shackleton?
