“I’ve seen all the different scenarios that Earth has gone through over millions of years. You can see mountain ranges pop up, bow down, you see deserts replacing rainforests and all that change through time really puts perspective through current day climate change and the impact of humans. And that impact really makes you think about how we can keep our society going forward. And that's what I'm trying to work on, making sure that our use of resources and the impact we have is more in balance.”

"I think everyone’s capable of being a guardian, we are all equally invested in the planet and other people. It’s just that some people realise it more than others. And again, education is the answer to me."

"I’ve always believed that business has a responsibility to give back to the community in which it operates. I think that what inspired me to create Banyan workspace and everything that we do here was to show that it was possible to run a successful business responsibly and in an environmentally friendly way and also to give back to the community."

"It is naive to think that we’re going to change the world through small personal lifestyle changes, however, each individual action adds up and multiplies. And it is having that perspective that matters.A good place to start is with the three Rs: reduce, reuse, recycle."

“Lack of opportunity. Non-existent equality. There is so much untapped creative talent around the world that never gets the chance to shine. For geographical, social or cultural reasons. That’s just not fair. Those are the barriers I constantly strive to break down.”

"We're a little bit the rebel. We see ourselves as activists who are also trying to run a business. Instead of holding a sign, this is my way of showing the world that action is needed now."

“The future of production will be completely re-defined by 3D printing. We’ll be able to print on demand - locally - with re-cycled materials. Physical warehouses will be replaced by digital print directories. And the environmental footprint of long-distance shipping will decrease dramatically”.

“We can’t all just sit around and wait for others to do something. But the beautiful thing is that as soon as one person takes the initiative, others are quick to follow. One person cleaning up in the community quickly becomes ten, and then one hundred”.

"Packaging is an old industry that lacks innovation. We disrupt it by changing consumer behaviour rather than introducing yet another unsustainable material. We see reusing as taking a step further, not back. Thanks to the power of technology we can reuse without compromising on convenience or quality of experience."
