Episode Synopsis

Welcome to Sustain Talks where I discuss the world of Sustainability and CSR with an array of interesting people I come across on my journey.  Today I’m talking to Phil Williams the environmentalist, sustainability trainer and colourful raconteur.  Phil shares with us his intimate stories of life with his friends the Amazonians and the adventures he has had in the rain forest.  He also shares how we can all make small changes at home, in the way we shop, eat and the electricity we use, which will all have a lasting impact on our children’s futures.  After COP26 I think we all realise we all need to do our bit. Phil thinks it’s time to stop talking and start taking action, so watch Phil and I take some notes and start making a change!  If you’d like to learn more about what you and your company can do to be more responsible and sustainable please take a look at www.responsiblefuturesconference.com  If you’d like to hear more from people like Phil please don’t forget to Subscribe to my channel.  Thank you.
