We’re excited to announce the launch of our podcast, Igniting change: Why consumers don’t make more sustainable decisions, which looks at the sustainability intention action gap and how we can change behaviours to combat it.
For this podcast series, we will looking to discover how we, as humans, can reduce our impact on the planet with insights from psychologists, brands, sustainability experts, climate scientists, government and charitable organisations.
The hosts of our podcast are Richard Strachan, Managing Director at 3 Sided Cube along with co-host Charlotte Mill, Head of Marketing at 3 Sided Cube and Ignite champion.
Ignite
Ignite is a movement purpose-built to drive behavioural change and make a difference to the ever-growing waste crisis, support sustainable living and enhance environmental protection.
The aim of the program is to get the right people in the right room to create solutions to the world’s biggest problems. We do this through collaborative events, with past speakers from WWF, Innocent and Beauty Kitchen as well as research reports and our newly launched podcast series.
We create Ignite as we believe technology can support sustainable living and create a better future. Working with organisations including the American Red Cross, Forest Watcher, the World Resources Institute, and LUSH, we are embarking on a mission to create apps that enable and nudge people, businesses and NGOs to improve their sustainability efforts and make better choices.
