[157] Creating a Greener and Cleaner future – with Parisa Wright

A Sustainable Life with Jen Gale

In this episode I’m chatting to Parisa Wright, who is an absolute powerhouse of positive change – to the extent that I felt the need for a nap after speaking to her!
I am in absolute awe of her passion, her energy and her absolute commitment to creating a greener and cleaner world for all our of children and for future generations. Parisa’s journey starts in the same way that many of ours will have done – looking at the changes she can make in her own life and home. She then started to think about how she could get others involved in her local community and created a local FB group and started running regular events. Not content with that she went to a fully fledged charity and raise hundreds of thousands of pounds to open an eco hub in a large shopping centre in London. And even then she’s not content and is involved in research into how we engage people with the behaviour changes needed, and is looking at how the charity can support other towns and cities to create eco hubs.

As I said, Parisa is an absolute powerhouse, and for anyone who ever says ‘but what difference can one person actually make’ I will certainly be pointing them in her direction! I think you’re going to love this episode – please do let me know!

Enjoy!
