Thoughts after attending this event: - It’s important to bridge sustainable behavior in all aspects of life: think of any job as a sustainable job (it’s mutually inclusive and should be learned/taught in education or through work programs.) - Networking is a lifestyle: Use any event, outing, etc. as a chance to network & learn. (I had no idea Repowered also works towards the transitions for those in the re-entry processs from incarceration! I’m very passionate about this work and now have new opportunities or ideas.) - Regulations! (We have made great strides, but there’s still so much work that needs to be done. Know who you’re voting for & do they support the 3 P’s: People, Planet, Product) Reflections •What do you support through the products/services you buy? (Where does your money go from the financial institutions that you fund?) •Do you use refurbished products, resell, reuse/upcycle? • What can you do today to reduce your carbon footprint & get one step closer to a thriving, sustainable future?

🫂💚It's GTB's Member Monday, and we're highlighting Tamsyn Nicol, Creative Producer & Director at BelloVista Productions. "Sustainability work involves a revolution on lifestyle, both personal and work. It's requisite means taking a moment to stop, breathe deeply, do a full circle inventory, and then embrace the initiative towards a big picture minded approach to global and local (glocal) awareness ~ looking at life through the lens of a circular creative economy. The beauty of the journey of sustainability is that it's interwoven and at the intersection between people and the environment. Its practice starts at home, and flows into work, and vice versa. It's not a trend, it's here to stay - and in the end it's about our ability (through contribution and choices) to sustain life for the future or not.” We are beyond proud to work alongside Tamsyn and Bellovista Productions in the effort toward a greener production industry. 🎥🌱 #MemberHighlight #Sustainability #SustainableProduction

Earth is not a good place to live.’ ‘Shall we book our tickets to Mars, now?’ With the climate damage happening daily This is going to be the normal conversation in many years to come. On a fine summer evening, while watching Shark Tank, I was mesmerized by Prachi Shevgonkar pitch. How beautifully at such a young age is she ready to bring change into the world with her innovative carbon handprint app that helps people reduce their carbon footprint. And, when I looked around and searched more I loved how many brands are opting for eco-packaging rather than plastic ones. Why eco-packing is the trend? -Safe for environment -Encouraging a minimalist approach -Good for brand reputation. Inspired by her vision I asked my designer to give me a brand identity for ‘cool the Globe’ if it was an FMCG brand. The earthy tones, and the minimalist balance give ‘We are safe for the environment and you’ So, what do you guys think about it ? @cooltheglobe @prachshevgonkar Radhika Gupta #brandstrategist #brandidentity #pacakaging. ___________ If you liked today's post, make sure to like and comment 👍 Don't forget to repost it on your network too.
