Imagine5

What a moment! Imagine working tirelessly to inspire more people to care about our planet, knowing how crucial cultural figures are in driving behavior change—yet also knowing that many mainstream celebrities hesitate to speak up, fearing backlash. Now, imagine receiving an email from Viggo Mortensen's PR team, asking if we'd like to interview him for our upcoming issue of Imagine5 magazine - with a request straight from Viggo himself. I can tell you, it feels absolutely incredible! I'm thrilled to announce that yesterday, we launched Volume 3 of Imagine5 magazine, packed with inspiring stories for planet-friendly living. I want to thank all the influential stars who have shared their voices with us, helping to reshape norms and inspire action toward a greener future. Every day, we work to spark a positive tipping point. It only takes a small fraction of us to ignite meaningful change—but when cultural profiles like Viggo Mortensen, Aurora, Sophia Roe, The Sioux Chef, Lærke Bagger and many more are part of that fraction, it fills me with hope. I also want to give a very special thank you to my amazing team for their hard work and creativity in bringing this issue to life. None of this would be possible without you! Let’s keep pushing for a planet-friendly future, together.

Our latest volume of our magazine is out now, it's a flipping good read! It’s packed with 180 pages of positive climate stories to inspire action, from Viggo Mortensen on escaping to the woods, Sophia Roe on conscious comfort food, an eco psychologist on caring for yourself and the planet, the coolest carbon-cutting apps, a climate quiz and much, much more.

These women in Assam, India, are members of a very unusual defence force: the Hargilia Army. Wearing homemade paper-mache headdresses, their mission is to save the greater adjutant stork, known locally as ‘hargila’. Once found widely across South and Southeast Asia, today they are one of the world’s rarest storks, with global numbers down to 1200. This all-female eco army is led by biologist Purnima Barman (pictured in front), who believes that women are key to community-led conservation. So far she has rallied over 10,000 women to raise awareness about the ecological importance of this winged scavenger – traditionally reviled by locals as a bad omen – in a bid to bring the species back from the brink of extinction. This is a snippet from the latest volume of our magazine. It will be available from Monday, September 16!
