Manchester City Council has trained precisely one member of staff since November 2014 in carbon literacy.

MCFly submitted a FoIA asking for “A monthly break down of how many staff (officers) have been trained, from the first one, up until 6 th February 2017?”

Here’s the answer we got.

April 2013 86
May 2013 139
June 2013 180
July 13 57
April 2014 18
May 2014 80
June 2014 44
July 2014 191
August 2014 74
September 2014 46
October 2014 5
November 2016 1

Make this up. Go on. I dare you.
