Free Range, Fair Trade, Green Energy, Rainforest Protection and new solutions to social, economic and environmental issues since 1990. Consumerism is dead. People need to know who is doing what with their trust, money and commitment - good people are investing time, talent, money, reputation and belief in their choices and affiliations. We need massive participation and collaboration across all society and cultures, if the shoots of social and environmental sustainability are to really take root and transform our attitudes and behaviours. We are seeing the age of consumerism turn into the age of investorism. Conscious and positive investment of time, money and talent. My 'sustainability' roots go back to the beginning of commercial Free Range and Fair Trade 1989, the foundation of Host Universal in 1997 to work with Anita Roddick's Body Shop International; the Co-founding of Sohost_London an ethical, fairly traded. green energied, zero-waste-to-landfill CoWorking venue in 2013, followed by The Tank in 2014. The Tank makes high level change strategy accessible to accelerate positive, transformational change.
