Can we use Space Technology to build a better future for ourselves, or will it end-up yet another contributing factor to the Climate Challenge? Enter Ryan Laird, our final guest of the season, CEO of Green Orbit Digital, for a fascinating insight into...

More and more brands these days are self-censoring their Sustainability efforts, due to fear of being called out for Greenwashing. But as today's guest Maddy Cooper explains, this "paralysis of Greenhushing" is incredibly damaging for the success and momentum of the Sustainability movement.  Since struggling with her own climate anxiety, Maddy took it upon herself to transform her career in Marketing; first by attending the University of Cambridge's Sustainability Leadership Course, then...

Advertising often gets a bad rep in Sustainability circles, and that can be for good reason. Too often, Adverting is used as a tool to manipulate people into purchases they don't need, or  to divert attention away from or 'greenwash' companies' Sustainability credentials.  This was the dilemma Julien Massiot faced many years ago, when he realised he could not separate his values from his work, and started refusing Advertising campaigns for products he disagreed with morally.  Realising he had...

We're very privileged on The EcoSend Podcast to be inspired by so many change-makers leading innovation and solving problems. And Carina Jandt is high up on that list!

Furniture, hardware,...

It's all very well to hold values 'on paper', but when those values are tested by business decisions, many change-makers find themselves sadly making compromises.  That can involve agreeing to work for clients who you know don't match with your mission. But the financial incentives can be hard to say no to, especially for freelancers in the Sustainability and Regenerative Business sector. Magali Seyvet however, is not one for compromises! Magali is on a mission to harness the power of...
