It only takes a few people to make a difference. Eight DuPont Nutrition & Biosciences employees decided that they wanted to do more to address climate change, so they started the Carbon Conversations employee forum. During six 2-hour workshops held at three DuPont sites across Denmark, employees learned about climate change and gained new skills to put into practice as climate advocates at work, at home and in their communities. After the first Carbon Conversations event, a few participants planted a Copper Beech tree on the lawn at our R&D site in Brabrand, Denmark. Copper Beeches consume around 61 kg CO2 per year and can typically live for up to 200 years. The Carbon Conversation initiative has been adopted by sites in other countries in Europe and beyond.
