Here’s what sustainability experts said about GreenX Talks 2023!
Stewart Moore
“Sustainable and responsible tourism is everyone’s business. It’s about all coming back to the table and everyone has to be a part of the conversation. I believe Sunshine Coast can be a leader in the Asia-Pacific.”
Andrew Eves-Brown
“Ecotourism is not only the green end of tourism, it’s the walking trails, bike trails, agri-tourism and farm gate experiences. The Sunshine Coast Biosphere’s aim is to be internationally renowned as a place where people live, learn, work and play sustainably.”
Amanda Pummer
“Tourism Noosa’s key learnings from our sustainability programs include responding to demand and supply, working together on SDGs and eco goals, data is King, partnering with eco-action community groups and learning from First Nations people.”
Dr Mike Duggan
“Businesses and NFPs are making decisions that are impact driven. Insights from data and graphs help you to make decisions about utilising dollars in the most impactful way.”
Pollyanna Darling
“Collaborative activations are a way to extend the impact beyond your own business, leveraging your networks and at the same time raising brand awareness and inspiring people.”
Brett Hazlett
“A survey of over 11,000 businesses found that SME’s (1-20 employees) with high ESG credentials were 3.6 times more likely to engage in online hiring. That is, if they were sustainable they were hiring and growing.”
Heidi Cooper
“In the next decade, having a clear focus on a sustainable business agenda is going to be absolutely critical. More and more we see government and business looking for businesses that can demonstrate sustainable business practices.”
Dr Nicole Garofano
“We are only going to be able to achieve sustainability and increasing circularity if we collaborate, push through and help each other.”
Dr Clinton Schultz
“Aboriginal business works from negotiations, compromise and mindful awareness. Common values and principles of First Nations people are respect, responsibility and reciprocity.”
Dr Alexandra Campbell
“Seaweed forests are vast, they cover a small proportion of our surface but they contribute in a really globally significant way to the bio geochemical cycles like the carbon cycle.”
Nathan Begley
“The generation amount of coal fired power stations that will be shut down in the next 11 years is the same needed by NSW at 7.00am in the morning – 7GWh (gigawatt hours).”
Natalie Isaacs
“Never underestimate the power of one person, one business and the power we have collectively to change the world. We need to deeply fall in love with the Earth.”
