Why did I start The Green Bean

Global warming knows no boundaries, whether you are young or old, rich or poor, kind or careless, it will affect you. I started interviewing pioneers in the field of sustainability with the hopes of sharing the vastness of the fight against the climate crisis. From entrepreneurs to journalists, everyone has their own take on how they are helping the cause. I hope that by sharing the voices of those I interview, with my audience, I will inspire others to look for sustainable solutions and innovations in the world around them.

“The Green Bean” shows us that we can all contribute, even an act as small as a ‘bean’ can and will have a big positive impact.
