How to be an effective ocean activist - a question on many people's mind at the moment.  

Louise is a fellow Oceans 8 Brighton consultant and has been creating informative art from waste plastic since 2006.  

This episode is a bit longer but Melanie is just too interesting and inspiring so I didn't want to cut much out!

The Ocean has a tummy ache!

Join me in a beautiful garden in Seaford where Caroline works. You can see part of the amazing view from the photo I have posted.

I met up with Cat outside in a cafe and we chatted away for ages about her favourite subject - Reuse.  Cat is a force to be reckoned with and a true environmental hero.  She beat David Attenborough to number one in the Resource Magazine list for top contributors.  She is the co-founder of Freegle (Free Giving Locally Easily), Tech Take Back and the Waste House.  She has been tirelessly working at reducing waste for over 20 years.  She is a total fountain of knowledge and I am certain you will learn /episode/index/show/claretalksrubbish/id/21008711

This episode finds me sitting on the floor of the stock room at Harriet's of Hove: Plastic Free Pantry with the super inspiring shop owner and NHS Sustainability Ambassador Harriet.  We talk about sustainability in healthcare, plastic free July, changing your life and following your passion, juggling life as a nurse and a shop owner, what sustainable healthcare looks like, talking to a whale mural,  refillable beer and loads of other things!

Join me sat in Studio Loo with circular economy design expert, Surfers Against Sewage Regional Rep and all round marine debris geek Claire Potter.   /episode/index/show/claretalksrubbish/id/21008717

In this episode I lay myself bare and tell my story of how I transitioned from an unhappy lawyer to living the life I love in a sustainable way.  I talk about my passion for the ocean, simple hacks on how you can make a difference and I aim to inspire and empower you to lead the way in creating a wave of change.  All future episodes will be conversations with others pioneering positive change for the environment.  Together we're redefining what's possible.
