In this episode of Executive with a Cause, host Tammy Ven Dange chats with Ricki Hersburgh, Executive Director of Plastic Oceans Australasia. Fuelled by data, research and their resulting facts, Ricki Hersburgh is on a mission to drive behavioural change in plastic use.  With an in-house Technical Advisory Panel and public education team, Plastic Oceans Australasia has been able to pair research with delivery. In this episode, we discuss how they focus on understanding the drivers of consumer behaviour, so they can effectively intervene and reduce the use of plastics. We also discuss the value of collaboration between organisations and how this can effectively fill capability and knowledge gaps when resources are limited. As a scientifically based organisation, data collection and its use are also highlighted to understand the ‘what and why?' in analysing plastic pollution and contribute to the ‘how' in addressing the problem. Furthermore, we hear how Ricki attracts volunteers for their Technical Advisory Panel and how leaders should follow the ‘what's in it for them?' principle to help retain volunteers. Finally, you can get involved in the cause with ‘Picnics Unwrapped' - an initiative to host a plastic-free picnic and raise funds in September. Or do you have a great story on tackling a plastic-related problem? Entries are now open for the Oceans in Motion film festival, with categories available for primary to tertiary-aged students and members of the boating community in Australia or New Zealand.  Thank you for listening to the Executive with a Cause podcast.

We are ending #plasticfreejuly with a BANG over here at The Enlighten Me Podcast! Today on the show I'm talking about single-use plastics. These are things that can only be used once and then have to be tossed. There are some really useful single-use plastics, like plastic surgical gloves! But there are also some really wasteful and unnecessary single-use plastics, like plastic straws and coffee cups. There are so many different types of single-use plastics that you might not even realize just how many are in your life. In this episode, I'm talking about what these are, why they're so bad, and some easy ways to cut that plastic out! To view the full show notes, continue reading here of visit my website: www.heartfelthippie.com You might be thinking, why are people so worried about plastic? It can be recycled and reused! While this is mostly true, there are some problems here. For one, a lot of types of plastic can't actually be recycled. Think of potato chip bags here. Also, while you might have your recycling game down pat, a lot of countries around the world don't have great waste management systems, let alone recycling programs. Finally, it should be noted that a whopping 91% of recyclable plastics are not even recycled! Shocking, right? The plastic pollution crisis is ravaging our planet and our wildlife. There are millions of tons of plastic getting dumped into our oceans every year. And what's worse is that our wildlife is consuming these plastic particles, and then we are consuming them too! According to the Plastic Oceans documentary, we'll be eating plastic every time we eat seafood by the year 2050… I'll pass on the crab cakes, thanks. Overall, we need to be more conscious consumers and watch our plastic use. Anytime we can cut back, we should. If we were to eliminate those single-use plastics, we would cut the worlds plastic pollution by 50%! So, here are some practical ways that you can reduce your waste: -Buy reusable grocery sacks, produce sacks, coffee cups, water bottles, straws, and cutlery -Look for paper, glass and aluminum packaging over plastic -Shop your Farmer's Market first -Buy dry goods in bulk and bring your own containers -Use reusable rags for cleaning instead of sponges or towels -Switch to reusable diapers over disposable -Use wash cloths instead of baby wipes -Follow hashtags on Instagram: #noexcuseforsingleuse, #zerowastekitchen, #zerowastebathroom for more ideas -Buy local instead of online and request plastic-free shipping when buying online -Participate in beach clean ups or neighborhood clean ups Links from the Show: NRDC: https://www.nrdc.org/stories/single-use-plastics-101?gclid=Cj0KCQjwu8r4BRCzARIsAA21i_Di4s3II-3_SF4B-mGQoEiFJw-gEa292B02S6ElrwNr3dQAJoFZcvMaAi6QEALw_wcB Univ. of Georgia article: https://science.sciencemag.org/content/347/6223/768.abstract?ijkey=BXtBaPzbQgagE&keytype=ref&siteid=sci Plastic Footprint Calculator: https://www.earthday.org/plastic-pollution-calculator-2/ Plastic Oceans Documentary: https://plasticoceans.ca/?matchtype=b&network=g&device=c&adposition&keyword=plastic%20environment&gclid=Cj0KCQjwu8r4BRCzARIsAA21i_Cf2FfnC9YjZ05gGUSsY59VO9bZcOe__JaEXbNhys4WXZqEv95l80caAoLvEALw_wcB Connect with Mackenzie: Instagram & Facebook: @theheartfelthippie Website: www.heartfelthippie.com Email: mackenzie.heartfelthippie@gmail.com

In this episode, I sit down with Adrian Midwood, Executive Director of Plastic Oceans Canada and we discuss the role of education in everything from plastic pollution, oceans, climate, covid and more. I highlight some of my most valued educational theories and give examples of some of the great work done by students. The key take away is the missional approach today's students have towards their education. If it means something, they will change the world!

How do microplastics impact the ocean, wildlife, and the wellbeing of the overall planet? Learn from PhD student Charles Rolsky, who has fused his lifelong love of the ocean with the brainpower of the biosciences to create research programs dedicated to studying and remediating microplastic pollution in the world’s oceans. Charlie also shares his experiences – the good, the bad, and the funny - in becoming a public figure, from speaking at TedTalks to starring in an ASU commercial. In addition to describing the how ASU has enabled his innovation mindset, he highlights the importance of scientists being comfortable with also being storytellers, to build the bridge between the research community and the public.

Jo Ruxton is the founder and director of Plastic Oceans UK; a non-profit dedicated to educating people on the perils of a plastic polluted ocean. A Plastic Ocean is an iTunes and Netflix chart-topping documentary designed to make the public more ocean literate. Though it was released four years ago, it continues to make waves in the environment debate.Jo produced the film as a result of seeing, first hand, how plastics and pollutants damage the ocean, and in turn damage us. She started the marine programme when she worked for the WWF; she pushed for conservation documentaries to be made whilst at the BBC. Now, after years of being told that people “aren’t interested in conservation,” Jo is making people listen to the ocean - whether they want to hear it or not.Topics include: ocean literacy, funding, climate cynicism, plastic intelligence, the youth's passion, and not taking no for an answer, This is Jo Ruxton’s Rocket Fuel.———————Follow James @JamesErskine (twitter.com/jameserskine)Follow Rocket @WeAreRocketHQ (twitter.com/wearerockethq)Follow Rocket on LinkedIn (linkedin.com/company/thebigshot)wearerocket.co.uk/Contact Jo Ruxton on LinkedIN (linkedin.com/in/jo-ruxton-57589aa)Follow her on Twitter @jamesmanager_ (twitter.com/joruxton)Follow Plastic Oceans UK@PlasticOceans (twitter.com/PlasticOceans)Contact Plastic Oceans UK on LinkedIn (linkedin.com/company/plastic-oceans-foundation-uk)plasticoceans.uk/Stream A Plastic Ocean on Netflix: netflix.com/gb/title/80164032 See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

AMV BBDO is a global communications agency. 289 offices in 81 countries big. That's influence. Their #Bloodnormal campaign for Bodyform was the first to show period blood. Plastic Oceans with Ladbible played a significant role in bringing the plastic problem into mainstream conversation. Both campaigns showcased the power of creativity and visual communication. I talk to creative partner and a key mind behind both campaigns Nadja Lossgott about her work for AMV, her story, thoughts on branding taboos and the power of our artistic skills to inspire change for good. We get into the role of consumers and brands in triggering mainstream conversations and we must piss a few people off to make real change. What are your thoughts on blood in advertising and the role of brands in positive change? @arrestallmimics on social media.

Who’s up for stopping our wasteful ways and reimagining trash as a resource? This week’s guest is proving fashion can be made from entirely from recycled materials. He is Javier Goyeneche, president and founder of Ecoalf, the Spanish clothing company that pioneers high-tech new materials made from waste. If you’re a sustainability nerd, you’ve no doubt heard of Ecoalf. It was Spain’s first B-corp and Gwyneth Paltrow is a fan - a few years back she did a collab with them for Goop. They’ve developed fabrics from used coffee grounds, cotton waste from the cutting room floor, old fishing nets and car tyres and ocean plastic, and they’ve created a cult brand in the process, focused on timeless sporty pieces designed to last. We’ve all heard of recycled poly made from discarded PET bottles, some even collected from our shorelines and beaches. But Javier set his sights on cleaning up the open ocean. The Ecoalf Foundation has partnered with thousands of fishermen in Spain and Thailand to fish for the ocean plastic that’s turned into Ecoalf’s Upcyle the Oceans yarn. “We’re not a story-telling company, we’re a story-doing company,” says Javier. This inspiring episode is about what it takes to succeed, and how to harness big ideas. And it’s a call to action: As the Ecoalf shirts say, “There is no Planet B."

The Plastic Free July movement is sweeping Australia and for very good reason. Our obsession with plastics, particularly single-use plastics, is causing devastating impacts to our oceans, our land, our wildlife and us. If you’ve ever wondered just what kind of impact, and the degree of this impact, plastics are having on our environment then today you’re in for a real treat. Actually, today may not be a treat at all, because my guest has some pretty alarming information to share with us all. Craig Leeson is an award-winning journalist, television presenter and filmmaker. His debut cinematic feature film, “A Plastic Ocean”, which he wrote, directed and executive produced, hit the coveted no.1 spot for documentaries on iTunes in the U.S., the U.K., and Canada and is listed globally on Netflix with the backing of Leo DiCaprio. What’s more, Sir David Attenborough has described A Plastic Ocean as the most important film of our time. If you haven’t yet watched A Plastic Ocean, I have a strong feeling it will be top of your “must watch” list after today. I’m chatting with Craig about what he discovered and learnt while filming A Plastic Ocean, what changes he’s since made to his own lifestyle and what he believes needs to happen at a global and local level to stem the flow of plastics into our oceans.
