The Bristol Harbourside is an important place for me – I bought my first flat here, I got married here and now I work here too. By creating sustainable communities we can protect our natural environment and we’ve seen that happen across the harbourside over recent years, as vibrant local businesses now sit alongside residents in the heart of the city.

What I believe in.
We’re at a turning point for the environmental movement as the world is waking up to the change that is urgently needed. We’ve taken our planet for granted for too long and we now face the greatest challenge in our history to save it.

Why I do what I do.
Because it’s not too late. We have all the tools, we just need to put them into practice. In order to do that we need to bring society with us towards a more sustainable future, to change minds and open them, and effective communication can play a big part in that.

What I do at Greenhouse.
I develop and deliver strategic communications to help green energy businesses to tell their story. Energy is an exciting sector that will be unrecognisable within the next ten years as renewables, electric cars and battery technology transform our relationship with the energy we use and create.

Potter’s Field Park has always been my favourite location to visit in London by foot or bike, with its fantastic views of Tower Bridge and of the City skyline right on the River Thames. Now I am lucky enough to work a stones throw away and regularly walk down here to capture the beauty on my lunch breaks.

What I believe in.

Promoting wellbeing inside and outside of the office and fighting the stigma around mental health.

Every single person can make a difference to the climate crisis… there is no I in Planet.

Why I do what I do. 

I hate to think of future children, grandchildren, great-grandchildren coming into a world where we could have made a difference for them… but we chose not to.

What I do at Greenhouse.

I am responsible for the smooth day-to-day running of our London office, alongside being PA to our fantastic Managing Director Jo Swift. I love to see our beautiful London office used to its full potential by a happy team.

Why the picture.
“The Last Bookshop’, nestled halfway up Bristol’s Park Street, represents the intersection of my two great loves: sustainability and storytelling. By taking remainders and overstocks and giving them a second life, this bookstore models an alternative, circular solution to a typically wasteful industry – and means that every one of its brand new books is only £3! Reading has always been central to my life, including my journey as an activist – from learning about veganism and the climate crisis, to writing my undergraduate dissertation on the representation of the non-human world in fantasy literature, and now my role telling the stories of groundbreaking climate campaigns.

What I believe in.
Listening to each other – and particularly to those who are underrepresented in the mainstream climate conversation – is essential if we are to build solutions that work for everyone. In my personal life, I believe in acting compassionately towards my fellow creatures and our planet through my dietary and lifestyle choices, and empowering others to do the same, within their means.

Why I do what I do.
The climate crisis is already impacting the lives of the most vulnerable communities around the world, and whilst many of the solutions already exist, we need the right people to start listening and taking action. Being part of the incredible team at Greenhouse allows me to amplify and elevate the ideas that are changing the world, step by step.

What I do at Greenhouse.
As an Account Manager, I deliver integrated communications campaigns for trailblazing organisations with purpose at their core; from biodiversity and nature conservation, to food systems transformation – with climate justice always at the heart of our work.

Why the picture.
I’m on Waterlink Way in south east London – an eight-mile walk and cycle route that follows the Rivers Pool and Ravensbourne through green spaces all the way to the Thames. Despite its route through densely populated urban areas of the city such as Catford, Lewisham and Deptford, it’s a wildlife haven for woodpeckers and kingfishers, and a community foraging hub where locals gather blackberries, sloes, pears, cherries and rose rips. I love that it makes the rural accessible.

What I believe in.
I believe that those of us who have the power, opportunities and resources to help create a safe and sustainable future have a responsibility to do so. There’s still a window of hope to better the world for future generations, and we should all be striving to make that change.

Why I do what I do.
Words have power and magic – it’s still incredible to me that from 26 little letters in the alphabet we can create new universes, spark emotions, change hearts and minds and deliver ideas around the world. Telling stories is a kind of alchemy, with which we can power environmental change.

What I do at Greenhouse.
I’m a Writer on the Energy and Clean Tech team, but I work with all our clients to craft and edit short- and long-form copy, from first drafts to structural edits, copy edits and proofreading. I use my 15 years of editorial experience to ensure messages are clean, concise and compelling.

Why the picture.
I am standing in busy Portobello Road, amidst markets, cafes and shops. I love how the markets and local small businesses here become a place of community, that reminds us all how connected we are. It is ultimately this belief, that the well-being of all humans, as well as the planet is deeply connected, that makes me passionate about sustainability. We cannot choose between social justice, community well-being and climate action – it is all one. I believe that coming together as a community and developing new systems of collective existence that nurtures all of us is central to the addressing the climate emergency that we are all in.

What I believe in.
I believe wholeheartedly that each and every one of us has such an incredible capacity of contributing to positive change.
We all have the ability, and the responsibility to play a part in creating a safer and more environmental just world for all. As Margaret Mead said: “Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful committed individuals can change the world. In fact, it’s the only thing that ever has.”

Why I do what I do.
I believe that the environmental crises we face are largely caused by disconnection – from the natural world around us, and from each other. Through the communications work we do at Greenhouse, we can create these bridges and reconnect. The solutions are already out there. We need to amplify the voice of Indigenous peoples and local communities that have been living in a positive reciprocal relationship with nature for millennia. We need to connect and listen to each other, to understand different values, needs and challenges. We need to highlight those creating innovative solutions, and hold those to account that are holding us back from acting on the climate crisis. All these challenges and solutions have communications work at their heart.

What I do at Greenhouse.
I work alongside the fantastic advocacy team on a range of campaigns and clients, with a special focus on climate justice and nature – from holding governments to account for not acting on the climate emergency, to protecting our forests and shifting the way commodities are produced globally.

Why the picture.

I’m in London Fields in Hackney, East London. Hackney has been my home since moving to the UK from Canada in 2017 and has some of the best, most beautiful and popular parks in the city. I love that natural beauty such as this wildflower patch can be found amidst the concrete landscape of a big city like London.

What I believe in.

That creativity and innovation live in all of us, along with the power to use those abilities to make positive change.

Why I do what I do. 

Working at Greenhouse means knowing that my day-to-day work plays a role in driving real impact for the world. I love finding solutions and exploring creative ideas that will move the needle for clients and their missions.

This photo was taken at a fresh fruit and veg stall in Borough Market, London. The market focuses on sustainable production and social connection, offering an escape from busy city life with explosive combinations of colour, smells, diversity and tasty food.

What I believe in.
It’s never too late or too little to make a change. If everyone did one extra small thing towards positive change, the world would see leaps and bounds.

Why I do what I do.
Reading can open your eyes to things you may not have thought possible. I believe writing – or as I like to call it ‘knowledge sharing’ – is fundamental if we are to secure the future.

What I do at Greenhouse.
I develop content and deliver integrated campaigns that celebrate the entrepreneurs and changemakers who are future-proofing our food system.

Why the picture.
I’m at the Barbican Water Gardens, a place of calm in the middle of a wonderful arts centre. Creative storytelling and art is key to inspiring people to engage with nature, question the status quo, and drive the systems changes we need to combat the climate crisis.

What I believe in.
To create a just global society and restore planetary health, we must shift our culture and embed a deep recognition that we live in reciprocity with Earth.

Why I do what I do.
Communication is fundamental to harnessing the existing climate solutions and implementing them justly. With a background in coordinating grassroots climate action, I thrive on building partnerships, storytelling and engaging new voices to safeguard people and the planet.

What I do at Greenhouse.
I focus on ocean protection and restoration, working with an array of organisations to communicate the wonder of the ocean and its crucial role for climate stability and health.

Why the picture.
Located at the heart of the City of London is Bloomberg HQ – one of the highest BREEAM-rated major office buildings in the world, integrating everything from water conservation technology to smart CO2 airflow, in its design. Sustainable planning and design are key to mitigating our carbon footprint and it’s really exciting to see a huge urban hub like London embracing its responsibility to champion a greener future.

What I believe in.
I believe in us. I believe we all have an ethical responsibility to do our part in protecting our planet and that every small action is a critical jigsaw piece in the bigger picture. I believe in taking a stand and challenging the status quo to secure a safe and sustainable future for generations to come.

Why I do what I do.
I’m a storyteller at heart. Words have the power to spark movements, inspire generations, and incite worldwide action. I’m constantly in awe of innovative campaigns and technologies that seek to provide new solutions to the climate crisis, and helping to communicate the missions of these groundbreaking projects is a role I find a huge sense of purpose in.

What I do at Greenhouse.
I’m an Account Manager in the Energy and Clean Tech team where I work with pioneering clients from a range of fields, including electric vehicles and smart energy storage and management, to craft their communication strategies.

Why the picture.

Living in cities for most of my life, green spaces in gardens are where I fell in love with the natural world. These urban pockets of green influenced my mission to protect it. They showed me how life forms are resilient and reclaimed urban and concrete environments, acting as a sign of hope for the future of our planet.

What I believe in.

I believe all beings should have equal opportunities to co-exist. In a world driven by linear growth, I aim to help protect those who are affected negatively by this growth and to find solutions to make it an inclusive and circular ecosystem.

Why I do what I do. 

There is so much beauty in the natural world, and I love communicating that to people. I hope to reconnect people with the natural world through my work, one step at a time.

I am standing in front of Bristol’s iconic Clifton Suspension Bridge, a historic piece of infrastructure that has witnessed the evolution of mobility, from 19th-century horse and carriages through to 21st-century electric vehicles.

What I believe in.
I believe communications plays a critical role in engaging and educating people around the world about climate change, as well as the solutions that will accelerate positive change.

Why I do what I do.
I’m from a very small and isolated island that is innately vulnerable to the impacts of climate change which acts as both my fear and my drive. As our global population continues to rapidly grow, our reliance on energy will too. Supporting companies that are accelerating our transition to clean and renewable sources of energy will give vulnerable nations, like where I’m from, a fighting chance.

What I do at Greenhouse.
I am an Account Executive on the Energy Team; I work with game-changing companies within the mobility and clean technology sectors that are accelerating and enabling the global transition to clean and renewable energy.

Why the picture.

As we look to the future, I hope to see more buildings looking just like this one. Innovation is what is driving the future of clean energy, and greening our cities and communal spaces should be part of that mission to utilise all available tools we have against the threat of climate change.

What I believe in.

Collective responsibility and sharing knowledge. We have a duty to raise awareness and educate those that are open to the conversation.

Why I do what I do. 

I feel very lucky to get to share the stories and successes of the many clients that partner with Greenhouse. For us to transition to a net-zero society we need to be having an ongoing, open and evolving conversation.

What I do at Greenhouse.

As part of the Energy and Clean Tech team, I support clients with thorough and comprehensive research that helps drive impactful communications campaigns. Working on a wide breadth of clients, I bring big picture expertise to my work and support across a range of disciplines; from media relations to digital content development.

I believe in the power collective action, working together with urgency to address climate change and protect our natural environment, because this earth belongs to all of us and we need to take care of it.
Why I do what I do. 

I am a climate activist living in Kenya, I love working with young people and I enjoy volunteering and various environmental organizations that work towards protecting our planet. Our common goal is to ensure that we have a clean and safe place to call home, free from pollution and the negative impacts of climate change.
What I do at Greenhouse.

I am helping to build a community of youth activists across the world to drive climate action, supporting the Children and Youth Pavilion preparing for COP28, creating short films, social media takeovers, engaging influencers and advocates, and ensuring collaboration, to ensure that young people’s voices are heard.

Why the picture.

I am in one of the restaurants in Shepherds Bush Market, a place that has been trading goods for over 100 years. The market is a reflection of the welcoming, resilient and adaptable nature of the community, where for the first time since moving to the UK, I’ve felt a sense of belonging. A lot of my community is from the Global South, where they are unequally affected by the climate crisis. So in my work, I strive for climate justice to ensure a fair and just approach to tackling climate change.

What I believe in.

I wholeheartedly believe in the good of humanity.

Why I do what I do. 

Businesses have a huge impact on society, the environment and climate. If this impact is positive or negative is a choice. I want to be part of the workforce that effectively and persuasively communicates the necessity for decision makers to be mindful of the ways their organisations affect the future and prosperity of humanity.

Together with my colleagues in the advocacy team, we work with climate legislation, youth empowerment and nature-based solutions.

Why the picture.
I’m at Blackwell’s Bookshop in Oxford, one of the largest bookshops in the UK with over 3 million books. I’ve chosen this picture as I’m passionate about literature and the endless lives it offers you to inhabit. Literature allows you to shift your perspective and place yourself in other’s shoes. In order to thrive as a society, we need to understand the multitude of other’s lived experiences and empathise.

What I believe in.

I believe that you’re never too old to learn. Education surrounding climate change and environmental protection is a step in the right direction. The greater the exposure, the greater a chance we have as a collective to save the planet.

Why I do what I do.

I want to be a part of change for the better and my passion for communication enables this. Moreover, I hope to look back on history and know I was on the right side of it.

What I do at Greenhouse.
I work with the Purpose team as an intern, delivering powerful communication for meaningful change.

Why the picture.
This photo was taken at Sky Garden, London’s highest public garden. I chose this location as it reminds me of how nature and people can thrive together. Being in the hub of the City, the financial district, the garden also represents how the finance sector can play a critical role in solving the climate crisis by mobilising and shifting capital to decarbonise the economy.

What I believe in.
The climate crisis has exposed huge inequality within our society. I believe that communication can play a key role in bridging that gap – making information accessible to everyone, sharing the facts, telling powerful stories, inspiring people and pushing organisations, countries and companies to change the way they function. 

Why I do what I do.
I love working with international organisations that are trying to mobilise policymakers and the finance industry so that we can achieve systemic change. Their passion and positive attitude are contagious which is a huge motivator in my day to day work at Greenhouse.

What I do at Greenhouse.
As part of the advocacy team, I am very passionate about supporting the game changers within the energy, policy and finance spaces who are working towards a fairer, more equitable and sustainable world. I also have the privilege of using my language skills, which I’ve used to build a network of journalists, securing international media coverage and reaching all corners of the world.

Why the picture.
I’m at the Dalston Curve Garden, a community green space in the heart of Hackney, London. I’m passionate about inner-city green spaces – there is so much nature and wildlife to connect with on our doorsteps. We need to make our cities greener and wilder places to live.

What I believe in.
That the more connected we feel to the natural world around us, the more we’ll value the environment and collectively work to protect it. That’s why improving access to nature is so vital.

Why I do what I do.
To give sustainable pioneers a chance to make their voices heard, and communicate with a wider range of people. Ultimately, the more choice we can offer consumers in how to act, shop and use their money, the more accessible it will be to live a greener lifestyle.

What I do at Greenhouse.
I specialise in communications strategy, thought leadership and media relations for brands that put purpose at the heart of what they do – working across areas such as financial services, retail and food innovation.

The backdrop of the picture is the Victoria embankment. The view from it encompasses the parliament, Thames river, London eye among many other historical and contemporary establishments. The welcoming inclusivity of the area and people makes me feel confident and challenges me to be original in the diverse and an ever-dynamic land of London.

What I believe in.

I believe in creating a fair and sustainable lifestyle and world to live in for our future generations. As we progress towards an uncertain climate change loop for our planet, I believe now is the time to be more proactive than ever. I stand by fact that communications plays a pioneer role and will lead the way in the quest for saving our environment and reversing the phenomenon climate change.

Why I do what I do. 

I have been inspired by the intertwined canvas of nature and its interface with various aspect of our lives. I love researching and learning about new topics everyday anyhow they holistically tie in with our everyday lives. A career in communications and PR provides me with the platform to acquire new knowledge and driving positive impact.

In the picture, I’m surrounded by a huge diversity of life at the Natural History Museum. It is not only a fantastically interesting museum, but a reminder that we’re part of a natural system much larger than ourselves.

What I believe in.

I believe in a society where the climate is at the heart of the conversation. As we decarbonise our energy networks, it is so important that our solutions are more inclusive and accessible than ever.

Why I do what I do. 

Communicating the stories which make change is hugely important to spark hope. Seeing positive stories about new technology is essential to maintain momentum in the fight to decarbonise.

What I do at Greenhouse. 

As an Account Executive on the wonderful Energy and Clean Tech team, I support across different accounts, from social media to PR activities. My focus is on clean transport clients, especially those accelerating the electric car revolution.

This photo was taken at Folly Farm Centre, a fully sustainable and eco-friendly space used for our team away-day. As part of the day, we discussed our values we share as part of the wider company, which was a great chance to hear other views and feel a part of the Greenhouse community. Having grown up in the South West of England, I love the backdrop of the rolling hills and forests which I have been surrounded by for much of my life.

What I believe in.

While there is a lot to be overwhelmed by in the world around us, many small choices can come together to make sizeable change. We can all decide to take a different path on any given day, joining communities of people wanting to break away from the status quo of behaviours that have failed us. Collaboration between individuals is key to ensuring we protect the earth and generations yet to come, particularly in ensuring that everyone is treated fair and equally.

Why I do what I do. 

I am passionate about giving others a voice, allowing them to share their stories and experiences. This is particularly important for those who have historically been disempowered and oppressed, often fighting to be heard in faulty systems that have been built. The more voices we have the more communities we can build and all be more understanding of each other. In a globalised and digital world, communication is vitally important to do so, disseminating the ideas and information that will shape our future.

What I do at Greenhouse. 

As part of the amazing Greenhouse Digital Team, I work across a range of different accounts to provide digital support for our clients. This also includes keeping the Greenhouse website and our various blogs to a consistently high standard. I also assist in the production of Greenhouse Morning News, a daily newsletter to help inform readers about current events in the environmental sector.

Why the picture.
I’m in central London stood in front of the iconic St. Pauls Cathedral. While the dome has dominated London’s skyline for over 300 years the city has undergone a staggering metamorphosis. The birthplace of the Industrial Revolution is now the world’s first National Park City and the home to more climate and environment innovators than anywhere else on earth. 

What I believe in.
We are going to need both nature-based solutions and innovation to be able to tackle the climate and biodiversity crisis at scale and speed. We no longer have the luxury of leaving the problem up to someone else. Although we’re being forced to act, we also have an opportunity to create an exciting, dynamic, and more sustainable society that benefits everyone.

Why I do what I do.
Communicating the complex, interconnected challenges and the solutions is going to be one of the keys to solving the climate and biodiversity crisis. Not only do we need to bring more people into the conversation that understand the impact that climate change is going to have, but we need to explain the solutions that already exist and help them scale. 

What I do at Greenhouse.
I work with an array of pioneers developing international and integrated campaigns. The aims are broad and range from accelerating nature-based solutions to developing climate-positive cities to changing policy at a national and international level.

Why the picture.

In order to decarbonise our world, it’s important for every single one of us to realise that our actions matter. From buying locally and seasonally from markets like this one, to reducing our air miles and recycling, to working with organisations that are finding solutions to the climate crisis.

What I believe in.

I believe every small action can make a difference. If we work together to put climate at the centre of conversations, we can build a future where every business, government and citizen understands the important role they play in protecting our planet.

Why I do what I do. 

With roots in rural west Wales, I’m passionate about protecting the planet we live in and the beautiful landscape of home. If we can decarbonise our energy system, we can eliminate three quarters of global emissions, helping achieve real impact in the road to net zero.

When my parents assimilated to the UK, there was only one language both they and the west knew fluently: food. I’m at Oriental Market, Gloucester Road, Bristol, paying homage to my upbringing as a first-generation child of self-employed immigrant parents. Many of them had to sacrifice their time for difficult working class jobs, fighting to survive daily life.

What I believe in.

I believe in equality – no matter what. Regardless of class, race, gender, sexuality, disability, we should all live in a stable society and feel reassured knowing that no matter who you are, the earth will welcome you with open arms. We can’t have climate justice without justice for everyone.

Why I do what I do. 

While the digital world is still such a (comparatively) new and revolutionary concept, the way it has transformed our lives to such scale is fascinating. Being able to reach and connect with such like-minded individuals across the globe, and share such powerful messaging and ideas, is exactly why I specialise in digital.

What I do at Greenhouse. 

I work in the digital team to amplify the voices that work to protect our planet. Whether that’s developing a social media strategy, connecting with changemakers or creating relevant and optimised content, we aim to get you as much online visibility as possible.

We are in a pivotal decade for renewable energy as the world transitions away from fossil fuels. How we communicate the urgency of the need to decarbonise is vitally important for swaying hearts and minds as we head towards a renewable future.

Why I do what I do. 

The solutions are now out there, and it is up to us to implement and scale them as quickly as possible to create the future we want. I’m passionate to educate, showcase and tell the stories of companies that are creating innovative solutions to some of the world’s biggest decarbonisation challenges.

Why I do what I do.
I believe the answers to some of our biggest challenges are already out there. Communicating that to the right people with impact is what it takes to make those ideas work.

What I do at Greenhouse.
I’m lucky enough to work alongside some of our most trailblazing and cutting edge clients. From clean tech and solar PV to energy storage and sustainable finance, I help deliver meaningful campaigns through multiple channels.

The picture was taken at our all-team away day, which took place at the beautiful Petersham Nurseries. Petersham Nurseries perfectly integrates nature and food. You are forced to think about the food system as a whole, where and how food is grown and prepared, a concept which is easy to disconnect from in day-to-day life.

What I believe in.

I believe in collective action. Working together and giving everyone a seat at the table is the only way we can create positive change for our society and environment. We have an opportunity to work together to combat a problem we all share.

Why I do what I do. 

I want to be in the action. The climate movement is inspiring, dynamic and so important and I want to be a part of positive change.

What I do at Greenhouse. 

As an Account Executive on the purpose team, I work to help create integrated campaigns that deliver meaningful change for people and planet.

I’m sitting on the bridge in my favourite place in Bristol – Nightingale Valley. I come here most days to walk the dog and get away from my desk for some fresh air. This unassuming pocket of nature in a Bristol suburb reminds me how important it is to continue fighting to protect spaces like these. Not only for the benefits of the local wildlife but the local humans too.

What I believe in.

That no one is too small to deliver an impact. We each have the opportunity to make a difference, and collectively, an even bigger one.

Why I do what I do. 

My background in B2B corporate communications left me incredibly disillusioned with the world and I began to wonder how I could use my skills more effectively. Building awareness and the profiles of organisations devoted to good has been a breath of fresh air and has re-invigorated my belief in the power of marketing communications for driving change.

What I do at Greenhouse. 

As a Digital Account Director, I work with our clients to develop and implement integrated marketing plans and campaigns, maximising their digital channels.

Why the picture.
I’m lucky to live down the road from Battersea Flower station, one of my favourite places in London. The space opened in 2012, as the team had a hope of creating a place of beauty in the land that runs alongside the railway track. I believe if we had a better relationship with the nature around us, we would be in a much more positive place in regard to climate change, and having this space right in the centre of Southwest London is wonderful.

What I believe in.
I believe that if everyone made one small change – whether that be walking instead of taking the tube or switching to non-dairy milk – our world would see immeasurable benefits. Our relationship with nature is not only important for the plant, but for our mental health too, and it’s time we started properly looking after our world.

Why I do what I do.
I enjoy the challenge of communicating the change we need to see to truly combat the climate crisis. Telling the story of companies using innovative technology will not only save the natural world my generation lives in but the one after that too.

What I do at Greenhouse.
As an Account Manager on the Energy Tech team, I work with a range of companies that are leading solutions to the climate crisis. I’m passionate about helping to tell their story, raise awareness of their technology and enable their work to have a global impact.

What I believe in.

I believe communication unlocks positive change. It will help us overcome the climate, nature and social crises we find ourselves in.

Why I do what I do. 

Nature underpins our entire existence and everything we enjoy from it. From the water we drink to our health and happiness, and our global economy. But, we are facing a nature crisis, and critically those most impacted, and nature, need a voice.

What I do at Greenhouse.

I work on communications campaigns with organisations and businesses looking to halt biodiversity loss and protect and enhance nature for people and planet.

Why the picture.
Energy is the single biggest enabler of human prosperity in history. Fossil fuel energy has also become the greatest threat to our world. Feats of engineering, like the engine in this picture, drove the last industrial revolution and are essential to deliver today’s clean-energy revolution – one that enables carbon-free prosperity for everyone.

What I believe in.
I believe in the power of human invention and innovation to transform lives, society and the environment for the better. From the industrial revolution to the space race, history shows what is possible.

Why I do what I do.
Ideas only become powerful through communication. The greatest theories, technologies and products are those explained with the simplest stories – from Newton’s falling apple, to the Apple iPhone. My role is to help green pioneers grow by telling powerful stories to investors, customers and society.

What I do at Greenhouse.
As Head of Energy and Clean Tech I spend every day working with the inventors and innovators at the forefront of the green industrial revolution – from crafting communications strategies to overseeing execution by our team of committed communicators.

Why the picture.
Food is such an integral part of who I am and how I connect to nature. I shop locally, prioritise seasonal food and seek out produce from farms that put biodiversity and nature first, which often leads to more creative plates at the dinner table!

What I believe in.
A world where people have a positive relationship with the environment around them. I have always been a stubborn optimist, and I believe that people are now turning their heads in the direction of a more sustainable way of living.

Why I do what I do.
To amplify the voices of the people who have the ideas, passion and solutions to create a healthier and more sustainable world. I love developing stories of the climate heroes on the ground and sharing their message on the international stage. There is nothing more motivating than witnessing the impact that communication campaigns can have on people’s livelihoods, nature and business.

What I do at Greenhouse.
I specialise in managing nature and youth-led campaigns that create measurable change – from lobbying policymakers to safeguard the countryside for future generations, to calling on major organisations to clean up dirty supply chains.

Why the picture.
The picture was taken at an exhibition at Somerset House in London called ‘Forests for Change’. At the centre were 17 pillars resembling the UN Sustainable Development Goals which aim to be a “blueprint to achieve a better and more sustainable future for all”. Whilst we may never achieve a perfect world, these goals should drive us to always do better in order to create a fairer global society.

What I believe in.
I believe that without environmental justice we will not achieve social and racial justice. The decisions made by politicians, businesses and us as individuals need to protect people and the planet.

Why I do what I do.
I love the fact that the work I do empowers individuals to have a voice in the climate conversation and drives impactful climate action.

What I do at Greenhouse.
As a part of the advocacy team, I work on national and international campaigns in the nature, policy and youth space, driving positive change through digital and media support.

This picture was taken on Albert Bridge, just off the national cycle route that connects London to Bristol and beyond, to Fishguard in Wales. I’m passionate about connecting with nature and wildlife and I’ve found exploring our rivers, canals and countryside by bike is one of the best ways to do that.

What I believe in.

We are undeniably facing a climate and biodiversity crisis. I believe every action and solution can make a difference, but that we also need systemic change to confront these challenges at pace and scale.

Why I do what I do. 

I love working with so many passionate communicators and clients, all seeking to make a positive impact and find solutions to environmental challenges.

What I do at Greenhouse. 

As part of our purpose team, I focus on managing integrated campaigns, with a particular emphasis on driving positive change and impact across the global food system.

Why the picture.
We need to shift trillions of dollars from funding unsustainable activities to financing the low-carbon economy. Progressive investors are starting to press companies to align their businesses with international climate targets and are investing a trillion dollars a year in renewable power, energy efficiency and other clean solutions.

What I believe in.
Climate change, biodiversity, global food and water – we are learning just how close we are to disaster. I believe we can implement solutions which are sustainable and can improve our quality of life, but time is very short.

Why I do what I do.
I want to support NGOs, entrepreneurs and businesses with the ability to create transformative change. I want to use my skills as a former journalist to increase their impact, communicating clear, powerful messages that influence the way people think and behave worldwide.

What I do at Greenhouse.
I work on sustainability campaigns targeted at the world’s biggest investors and with companies pioneering a smart, low-carbon energy and transport system. I advise on strategy, edit reports, sharpen messages and launch campaigns.

Why the picture.
This photo was taken at Stepney City Farm, a working farm in the heart of East London. Here, people can come to reconnect with nature, a rare opportunity in the busy inner city. I’m passionate about the sustainable ethos of the farm – organic vegetables are grown on-site and nothing is wasted, a way of living that we all can learn from.

What I believe in.
Looking after nature so that nature looks after us. The natural world has been supporting human life for thousands of years, and now we need to take steps to protect our ecosystems and biodiversity so that it can continue to do so.

Why I do what I do.
To help raise the profile of people advocating for systems change and protection of our planet. How can we expect people to support important causes if they haven’t heard about them? I’m passionate about getting these stories heard around the world.

What I do at Greenhouse.
I am part of the advocacy team, specialising in communications strategy. I work with a brilliant team to deliver a variety of campaigns of all sizes from local heroes to international change-makers.

Why the picture.
I am at Folly Farm Centre, at our team away day. We were lucky to celebrate bringing our team together at a place which is focused on protecting the environment, reinvesting all of its profits back into Avon Wildlife Trust.

What I believe in.
I believe the way that we live our lives has to change, and that we will all benefit by acting now. Our natural world needs us, and improving our connection with nature will bring only good to us as individuals, and our communities.

Why I do what I do.
I want to help us all to understand the complexity of the climate emergency with empowering language, and show the immediate benefits of taking action. The science is clear, and we need good communicators to explain why it matters today. This is what motivates me and why I am proud to give a voice to inspirational pioneers.

What I do at Greenhouse.
I work with our fantastic teams in London and Bristol to increase the impact of our business and to deliver outstanding work.

Why the picture.
I am in a restaurant that makes me smile – I love colour, vibrancy and hope. It prides itself on being sustainable and is inspired by the cooking and delivery of street food in Mumbai. I am motivated by addressing the impact we have on the developing world, and I think we have a lot to learn and share from other countries around the world.

What I believe in.
I believe that a sustainable circular sharing economy is exciting and within our grasp and that it will ultimately be better for humanity as well as better for the planet.

Why I do what I do.
I am inspired by the pioneers and innovators we meet through our work and they help me understand that we already have the solutions to address the issues we face. Our job is to help them to communicate with power and impact to take those solutions to scale.

What I do at Greenhouse.
I created Greenhouse to bring together a community of like-minded people who feel inspired and passionate about creating change. I love to help clients develop a powerful communications strategy and ensure we deliver exceptional results to create the change we want to see.

Why the picture.
I am at Windmill Hill City Farm. A haven of wildlife and luscious garden space in the centre of South Bristol. For me, it provides a sanctuary away from city living. It is an accessible space that educates and inspires the local community about animal welfare, plants and their environment.

What I believe in.
The worst impacts of the climate crisis will be faced by our future generations. For every better choice we make now, no matter how small, we can help those generations continue to enjoy the natural beauty of our planet that we have been so lucky to experience so far.

Why I do what I do.
I love working with people who have shared values and a common goal. Working at Greenhouse allows me to support a talented team who have a strong purpose to accelerate the fight against climate change through communication.

What I do at Greenhouse.
As Head of People and Culture at Greenhouse, I help to grow, develop and support our teams. My mission is to create a fair and inclusive culture where our people feel valued and celebrated.

Why the picture.

This was taken on North Street, an iconic high street of South Bristol. I’m local to the area and absolutely love the community spirit here. There are loads of independent shops, cafés and restaurants that are promoting a more sustainable and local approach to their activity. Plus, North Street is the home of Europe’s largest street art festival, which means you’re always walking amongst art!

What I believe in.

I believe everyone can contribute (within their capability) towards preserving our planet, even through small changes or actions. However, individual action is not enough. Governments and industries that are having the most negative impact on our environment are a real key focus for deeper change. The pressure should be kept on them to commit to better environmental and social policies.

Why I do what I do. 

Digital is such an interesting world to work in, it’s constantly evolving and there are so many opportunities to be creative and try new things. It just made sense to use my skills within an organisation like Greenhouse that aligns with my values and what I stand for. It’s good to feel part of the positive change.

What I do at Greenhouse. 

As part of our Digital team, I create paid media strategies and campaigns that will help our clients get the biggest impact possible across a range of digital channels. It’s mostly about getting the right content and message in front of the right people, and figuring out the combinations that work best is always interesting.

Why the picture.
I am on the beach in North Cornwall. When I am close to the sea, I feel re-energized and able to think more clearly. Great creative ideas seem to come more easily when I’m near some waves.

What I believe in.
I truly believe that if we work together and choose to collaborate more openly, we could make the world a better place for both people and the planet. I have chosen to do this by working with brilliant organisations and incredible teams that are taking action to support the urgent change we need as a world.

Why I do what I do.
I’ve always been someone who looks for the detail but loves the big picture. Everyday I’m seeking out new ways to raise awareness and create the maximum impact for our clients and I love it.

What I do at Greenhouse.
My job is to build talented teams to create and deliver integrated campaigns that cut through the noise and focus on the end goal – delivering impact. That means being bold with our ideas, creative in our thinking, accurate in our delivery and always measuring what we do.

Why the picture.

The National Trust has played a huge part in my access to nature growing up, where we used to spend school holiday as an extended family and friendship group every year visiting NT sites around the South West.

What I believe in.

I’m an advocate for both the mental and physical benefits of the outdoors as well as the significant role that nature plays in everyday life. I believe we all have a responsibility to nurture and protect it.

Why I do what I do.

It’s only in the last few years that I’ve really come to understand that our earth’s ecosystems are at critical risk and how much humanity depends on them. Having a realisation that I can contribute to the path to change has led me to work within sustainability and try to do my part in preserving our natural environment.

What I do at Greenhouse.

I support the brilliant, driving force that is our team across our day-to-day company operations. I have a genuine love of working with people and am fortunate to be able to work with so many inspiring communicators.

Why the picture.

The Woodberry Wetlands are an incredible example of community resilience, regeneration and the power of public infrastructure. Once providing drinking water to northern Hackney, excessive chemical ‘treatment’ of the wetlands decimated local wildlife and vegetation. Following privatisation, the wetlands were to be filled with concrete and built over, however, a determined community movement mobilised to save the wetlands, stop damaging chemical use and keep the space in public ownership. Decades later, the wetlands were opened for everyone to enjoy for free, right in the heart of London. I love coming here to see the birds, experience the quiet and to be energised by the strength of community and passion for the environment.

What I believe in.

I believe that our vital, global systems transformation must be for the many, and not just the few. Meaningful access to clean energy, water and transport are a right held by everybody, and the solutions are already there. With governments, businesses and communities working together, we can make it happen. Let’s go!

Why I do what I do. 

Every major movement in history relied – and continues to rely – on sound, creative messaging to inspire, mobilise and activate. I’m passionate about supporting game changing organisations to clearly articulate their work and connect with their community.

What I do at Greenhouse. 

As a Digital Account Director, I work closely with clients and the wider Greenhouse team to develop integrated campaign and communications strategies that efficiently activate digital channels.

Why the picture.
My time campaigning has brought me to this very spot at Parliament Square many times. The dual climate and biodiversity crises are catastrophes in which we can all play our part to tackle, but ultimately it is the politicians who withhold the power to change our trajectory. Whether that be by maintaining global temperature increase to under 1.5 degrees or restoring our natural environment, I believe that they can use that power to do what’s right – we just need to push them in the right direction.

What I believe in.
An equal, greener, safer society for all with people and workers at heart.

Why I do what I do.
I work in communications because I believe in the power of people to do the right thing when it comes to climate – we’re better when we work as one. Governments, civil society and businesses alike can all play their part in making a world safer for generations to come.

What I do at Greenhouse.
I’m an Account Executive on the policy and advocacy team. I work alongside fantastic colleagues and clients and work on a range of different campaigns from taking the government to court to showcasing vital climate-related research.

Why the picture.

I am at Tyntesfield, a beautiful National Trust house and estate in the county where I have lived and grown up for most of my life, North Somerset. I love the nature that surrounds the area, from the beaches and coastal paths along the coastline to the rolling hills in the Mendips, I will often be found exploring them with my family. I am passionate about engaging my two daughters in education events that showcase nature, and how we can protect it.

What I believe in.

Evaluating the way we all live our lives, and what we stand to lose if action is not taken. I believe everyone must work to protect the planet. Work must be done on many levels to achieve this, starting with educating all generations to stand up and fight for our planet, joining many younger generations that are already doing this!

Why I do what I do. 

I work alongside many inspirational sustainability champions at Greenhouse. I love enabling them to do what they do best, creating communication strategies for the amazing work being done by our clients to protect our planet.

What I do at Greenhouse. 

As Head of IT at Greenhouse, I help to support and develop IT systems that enable the team to focus on the work they enjoy the most. In a data led world I am passionate about cyber security, engaging people in security awareness, protecting the personal identities of themselves and the people around them.

Why the picture.
I am on St.Marks road in Easton, this road has a myriad of independent shops and restaurants and has a real sense of community, something that I think this close knit city is best known for. I feel very lucky to live in a city that promotes and supports this sort of independence.

What I believe in.
Buying local and plant-based food wherever possible! It’s so important to understand where your food has come from. If we all make small everyday changes, we can create a huge impact.

Why I do what I do.
Using my skills within the digital landscape to help organisations send their message far and wide is amazing. Imagery and social media are beyond powerful right now, it’s important to be able to use this tool at such a crucial time and to be part of the change we so desperately need to see.

What I do at Greenhouse.
I develop social media content and design promoting food sustainability, food technology to future proof our food system.

Why the picture.
I’m outside an independent flower shop in my home town of Frome, a place which for me represents the amazing power of community spirit, independent thinking, local retail and grassroots politics. These are the things that I think can change the world for the better.

What I believe in.
The power of businesses and communities to bring about behavioural change for the benefit of future generations.

Why I do what I do.
Climate change, food security and social inequality are impacting the world at a terrifying rate, but there are some amazing organisations and pioneers helping to reverse this. By communicating effectively and persuasively, we can encourage a powerful step change in the way communities, governments and businesses operate.

What I do at Greenhouse.
I help corporates and NGOs to tell their story, tackle big issues facing our world and campaign for positive change – I do this across financial services, retail, technology and food sectors.

Why the picture.
Battersea Power Station is arguably the most iconic symbol of the fossil fuels that have powered lives and economies for centuries. As it finds a new purpose in life, the redundant chimneys embody an accelerating and urgent transition towards clean energy sources.

What I believe in.
Climate change is an opportunity as much as it is a threat. A chance to demolish divisive barriers, build strong coalitions and deliver a just transition to save our planet.

Why I do what I do.
The journey to net zero must bring all members of society with it. Working in communications, I‘m privileged to be part of conversations with a range of voices that need to be heard as part of the fight against climate change.

What I do at Greenhouse.
As part of the energy team, I help to accelerate decarbonisation in the energy networks space. Our energy system is rapidly changing as electricity demand grows and more of our power comes from renewable sources. I support communications and stakeholder engagement to ensure we can achieve a clean and secure energy future.

Why the picture.

Renewable energy provides the greatest opportunity for clean, sustainable growth and societal unity. A just transition will require broad coalitions and innovation, at all levels. Projects like the community-owned wind turbine in this picture are leading by example.

What I believe in.

I believe in the power of collaboration and collective ingenuity, to solve our world’s biggest challenges. Innovators can come from anywhere, and solutions must be tailored to their contexts to drive change.

Why I do what I do. 

Communication is transformative. It crystallises thinking and turns ideas into positive impact. My role is to help individuals and organisations with big ideas see what could be and fulfil their potential.

What I do at Greenhouse. 

I work with the start-ups, investors, and NGOs at the cutting-edge of sustainable innovation – from co-developing communications strategies to delivering creative campaigns and key materials.

Why the picture.
I’m down by the river Avon in Saltford, a village between Bristol and Bath. I spent a lot of time here during lockdown, and I’m very grateful that I had such a beautiful place to walk to when our worlds shrunk. Lately, we’ve all appreciated more than ever that getting outside is integral to mental and physical wellbeing, but consecutive lockdowns have also emphasised that access to nature is by no means equal. It’s so important on so many levels that we work to rectify this, and I’m delighted to be part of an organisation committed to putting the natural world at the forefront of the agenda.

What I believe in.
I believe in environmental justice: if we aren’t working for a better future for everyone, then we aren’t working for a better future at all.

Why I do what I do.
I love telling stories that educate and inspire people to mobilise to combat the environmental crisis. I want to help people realise that they have the power and the tools with which to fight for a better world. I am motivated by the possibility of a future that is equitable for all, and I want to communicate that potential to others in the work I do.

What I do at Greenhouse.
I work within the behaviour change team, telling the stories of consumer brands who are putting the environment at the centre of their mission.

Why the picture.
I’m passionate about marine conservation and I love this turtle mural by graffiti artist Louis Masai which captures the vibrancy of the underwater world – and demonstrates why it’s so important we protect it. We invited Louis to paint a similar mural in our Bristol office, which is the first thing I see when I arrive at work in the morning.

What I believe in.
I believe we have a responsibility and an opportunity to limit our impact on the planet through reduction and re-use, and to protect the natural world around us.

Why I do what I do.
I am first and foremost a story teller and I want to tell the stories that matter, to make people aware that positive change is possible and achievable.

What I do at Greenhouse.
I have the great privilege to manage our Bristol-based team and have never worked with a more passionate or committed group of communicators.

Why the picture.
I am standing in the Crossbones Graveyard, a reclaimed green sanctuary in the heart of central London. It is a beautiful, wild garden that represents social inclusion, healing and the power of community.

What I believe in.
I believe that everybody has the right to live in a safe, clean, healthy environment. Those most affected by climate change are those least equipped for it, and our role is to repair and build a greener world for everyone.

Why I do what I do.
I believe in the power of people and businesses to be a force for good in the world. We can power change by amplifying the voices of pioneers, innovators and activists who are driving progress.

What I do at Greenhouse.
I work with the whole team to maximise our impact and ensure Greenhouse is a sustainable and regenerative business.

Why the picture.

Because some days, the closest you can get to nature is a plant shop.

“Never doubt that a small group of thoughtful, committed citizens can change the world; indeed, it’s the only thing that ever has.”

Why I do what I do. 

To accelerate climate progress by shaping social narratives and increasing the influence and impact of organisations holding corporations accountable for climate failures.

What I do at Greenhouse. 

I work on strategy, messaging and media relations in the advocacy team, focussing my attention on NGOs working to hold businesses and financial institutions accountable for their climate impacts.

Why the picture.
I am at St Werburghs City Farm – a brilliant urban community farm in the heart of Bristol. It acts as a catalyst for change by reconnecting people with where their food comes from, a concept that’s often lost in a city context. I am fascinated by food and supply chains and believe we need to move away from the practices associated with industrial agriculture.

What I believe in.
Consciously supporting positive change every day. Every time you spend money, eat a meal or watch a film, you’re casting a vote for the kind of world you want.

Why I do what I do.
I adore working in partnership with inspiring people and projects on campaigns that generate real, tangible behaviour change towards a low carbon economy.

What I do at Greenhouse.
I specialise in directing creative campaigns across the food, farming and biodiversity sectors. I work with a range of clients on integrated campaigns including the Just Rural Transition, WWF, Surfers Against Sewage, EIT Food, Triodos Bank, Whale and Dolphin Conservation and Sustainable Soils Alliance.
