Discover Your Carbon Footprint: Join the JCI Portugal Workshop in Lisbon
At Joplins, sustainability is at the heart of everything we do. We’re excited to highlight a transformative event happening soon in Lisbon, hosted by JCI Portugal.
🌿 What's happening?
On Saturday, 26 July, JCI Portugal invites you to the second edition of their engaging and interactive "2tonnes" workshop. This immersive event allows you to travel forward in time—right to the year 2050—where you’ll have the unique opportunity to discover your current carbon footprint and explore impactful ways to significantly reduce it.
The workshop employs an innovative approach: a serious game format that is both educational and exciting. You’ll collaborate with fellow participants, choosing from individual and collective actions that shape your environmental impact and build strategies to limit global warming to the Paris Agreement goal of 1.5°C.
🌍 Why "2 tonnes"?
The concept of "2 tonnes" refers to the maximum amount of greenhouse gases (CO2e) each person should emit annually by 2050 to achieve the international climate targets set in Paris in 2015. Understanding this target helps each of us comprehend the scale of change needed and the vital role we play in securing a sustainable future.

-
Gain clear insights into your personal carbon footprint.
-
