At The Greenery, we believe that
collaboration is the key to making sustainability a reality. That's why we've been working to build a network of sustainability experts, thought leaders and provocateurs who can help us get to original, breakthrough and most importantly credible ideas for our clients. These are not your mother's environmentalists; we like to think of them as the 'new breed' of sustainability thinkers, who share with us the belief that if the corporation is the dominant institution of the 21st century, it is also the greatest potential agent for positive change.
The people we are lucky enough to count in our network include
David Barber of

John Grant, author of

Callum Grieve of

Ben Goldhirsh, founder of

OZOlab. This is a hugely energetic and inspiring group breaking new ground in the race to a sustainable future, and we plan to showcase some of their ideas and opinions going forward.
To give you an idea of the type of work they're doing, we direct you to
OZOlife, a new daily guide to stylish green living from our partners at OZOlab, the people who also brought you OZOcar (and have some great new ideas up their sleeves, more at OZOlab.com). Of course, there's an ulterior motive here: besides giving you an excuse to spend a half hour gathering some great tips, we also offer up the chance to learn a little more about the Greenery's own Freya Williams, interviewed in this week's People section.
Spread the word....And check back over the coming days to learn more about our other Lab partners and their projects.
