In today's episode I'm chatting with Melati Wijsen, a 22 year old change maker and movement builder. When she was 12 she started a campaign called Bye Bye Plastic Bags with her sister Isabel to tackle the plastic pollution problem in Bali, where they are from. She went on to become a global spokesperson for not only plastic pollution but also the role young people can play in tackling the climate crisis. She spoke on international stages including TED and the UN headquarters in New York and was listed on Forbes 30 under 30.10 years later she is now spearheading a new initiative called Youthtopia, which is all about youth empowerment through short and meaningful peer to peer programs. I really enjoyed speaking with Melati about the early days of Bye Bye Plastic Bags and how she managed to channel her youthful energy into creating a global movement for change. Her joy and determination are contagious and I definitely felt inspired and ready to make change happen around me after our conversation!Want to dive deeper?Youthtopia - https://www.youthtopia.world/Bye Bye Plastic Bags - https://byebyeplasticbags.org/Mountain Mamas - https://byebyeplasticbags.org/mountain-mamas/Come say hi!Melati on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/melatiwijsen/Why We Care on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/whywecarepodcast/Tiphaine on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/tiphainemarie_/Discover Earth on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/discoverearth/If you enjoyed the episode and want to help the podcast, I would be super grateful if you could leave a little review or share it with a friend who might like it.

Today we need about 1.7 Earths to provide the natural resources for our consumption. If we continue to consume at the rate we have, we will need 2 earths by 2030. So how do we stay within the boundaries of what our planet can take? And how are young change makers leading the way?In this episode, Gail Gallie and Loyiso Madinga look at Global Goal 12 and ask what it means to consume “responsibly”. They speak with Johan Rockström, one of the foremost experts on sustainable consumption and production systems and renowned for his groundbreaking ‘planetary boundaries' framework. They are also joined by change maker Melati Wijsen who aged 12, together with her sister, successfully banned plastic bags in their home country Bali. Today, after a decade of campaigning, she aims to connect younger generations and provide them with the tools to make a lasting impact.

Single-use plastics are one of the major pollutants of our time. Growing up in Bali, Melati and Isabel Wijsen noticed that their environment was becoming increasingly saturated with plastic bags. At 12 and 10 years of age, they founded Bye Bye Plastic Bags, with a vision of ridding the world of plastic bags. In 2019, after six years of advocacy, they were able to reach their goal in Bali. Now 21 years old, Melati shares lessons she learned in her decade-long journey as a climate activist. She also tells us how campaigning with Bye Bye Plastic Bags led her to launch Youthtopia, a platform for young changemakers. In the episode, she also speaks of the critical role the youth play in creating a better future.

In her galvanizing debut feature documentary, BIGGER THAN US, Director Flore Vassuer follows an international collection young people working to bring long term solutions to seemingly intractable social, political and economic issues. For six years, Melati Wijsen, 18, has been fighting the plastic pollution that is ravaging her country, Indonesia. Like her, a generation is rising up to fix the world. Everywhere, teenagers and young adults are fighting for human rights, the climate, freedom of expression, social justice, access to education or food. Dignity. Alone against all odds, sometimes risking their lives and safety, they protect, denounce and care for others. The earth. And they change everything. Melati goes to meet them across the globe. She wants to understand how to hold on and continue her action. From the favelas of Rio to the remote villages of Malawi, from makeshift boats off the island of Lesbos to Native American ceremonies in the mountains of Colorado, Rene, Mary, Xiu, Memory, Mohamad and Winnie reveal a magnificent world, one of courage and joy, of commitment to something bigger than oneself. At a time when everything seems to be or has been falling apart, these young people show us how to live. And what it means to be in the world today. BIGGER THAN US was produced by Marion Cotillard and Denis Carot. Director Flore Vassuer as well as film subjects and activists Melati Wijsen and Mary Finn join us for an engaging conversation on how these inspiring young people are working to bring their passion, energy and desire to work across cultural, religious and political divides to find sustainable solutions.

Plastics are everywhere - in the air we breathe, the water we drink, and even the food we eat. As products that essentially never disappear, plastics have a huge impact on both our environment and our health. In this episode, we talk plastic pollution, regulating waste, and green entrepreneurship with Jay Sinha, Author and Co-founder of Life Without Plastic. He shares with us the ways businesses, government, and even individuals can impact our plastic use, in Canada and abroad.

What were you doing at the age of 12? Youth activist Melati Wijsen was establishing a grassroots movement that successfully lobbied the world's second biggest plastic polluter to ban single-use plastic bags. Today, Bye Bye Plastic Bags is a globe-spanning movement with thousands of young members, and Melati has set her sights on a new, more ambitious target. She talks to Gen.T editor Lee Williamson about the power of the youth mindset, how to be heard by the world's most influential people, and why "business as usual" is the real problem.
