Carbon Forum goes international with Uganda Museum Project

In a major departure from our usual territory Carbon Forum have undertaken to design and manage the implementation of a new Climate Change exhibition for the National Museum of Uganda, in Kampala. The exhibition will introduce climate change, its history and potential impacts with an emphasis on how these issues are important from a Ugandan perspective. Sections of the exhibition will focus on specific areas of life, such as the home, transport, agriculture and entrepreneurial opportunities. 

This is a very exciting project and requires us to take a fresh look at many of the issues associated with climate change and energy use - the energy saving and carbon reduction advice we regularly give to UK audiences doesn't fit so well in a country where the average carbon footprint is 0.1 tonnes (the UK average is about 10 tonnes and the US average is close to 20). and the typical lifestyle, occupation and pattern of energy use is very different.
