🏫 <5% of UK Schools Have Already Adapted to GenAI
In 2023, 65% of UK school leaders planned to review or make changes based on GenAI, with nearly 20% already in progress. This aligns with government goals to modernise education and responsibly integrate AI. Key policies include the Department for Education’s “Generative Artificial Intelligence (AI) in Education” guidance and the “AI Opportunities Action Plan,” both of which promote safe, effective AI use, teacher training, and student data protection.
🍃 Nearly 2.5x Growth in Carbon Accounting in the US
In 2022, carbon accounting grew fastest in the US to nearly 250%, driven by rising demand for sustainability skills. This aligns with government goals to achieve net-zero emissions by 2050. Key policies like the Inflation Reduction Act (IRA) and the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act support clean energy and carbon reduction, boosting green jobs in carbon markets, emissions management, and renewable energy systems. These initiatives are reshaping the workforce toward environmental expertise.
