I was always conscious about the climate crisis and sustainability, but it was more of an acknowledgement rather than concrete lifestyle changes and activism. The turning point was when my friend introduced me to the low waste movement a year and a half ago. Since then, I’ve delved into ways to reduce our carbon footprint, from the individual to the organisational level. I’ve worked with my research lab to reduce our waste & founded @zenbinuk, London’s first recycling mobile app.

I know people like to point out that corporations are responsible for most GHG emissions, which is definitely true, but the risk with that type of thinking is the wasting of precious creative brain power. You’re so focused on the bad guy, that you lose sight of your own potential. When you realise that you CAN initiate positive change, novel solutions present themselves to you.
