Communicating and Engaging

At Small World we believe it is important that information makes it out of our offices and into the public eye. Through publications, web-based calculators and talks we aim to engage at every level from the individual to local and national policy to bring about significant change.

See some of our material online:

The Eden Project’s ‘Show me the Carbon’

The Guardian’s ‘Quick Carbon Calculator’

10:10 Calculator

RSA – Talk: ‘The Carbon Footprint of Everything’

Writing:

‘How Bad Are Bananas? The Carbon Footprint of Everything’ Mike Berners-Lee’s book topped the FT’s list of Best Science and Environment reads for 2010 and was Amazon’s best selling environment book in that year.

Read the reviews here and here. Or for the North American version (surprisingly different) look here. Chinese and Korean versions are also underway.
