Green Learning

Actnowbitton_1Recently I was at an event going through the business case for e-learning, and comparing a typical classroom event with an online programme and the following thought struck me:

'E-learning is the greenest form of learning'.

No travelling across the country....spending time in jams....pouring more carbon monoxide into the environment. OK I know that this is pretty obvious, but with the recent Stern Report in the UK maybe it's time that we took more notice of the green credentials of e-learning.  We are all becoming more aware of the damage we are doing to our environment and it's time to make our own individual actions count - let's do a little more learning at our desks, or even better at home (so we even cut out the commute).

This ties in nicely with the cool book I bought recently: 'I Count; Your step-by-step guide to climate bliss'. Buy it and help save the planet....(and do some e-learning too).
