🌱 Rooted in Resolution: Serving Others for a Sustainable 2025 🌍 As we step into the new year, resolutions often revolve around personal goals—be it exercising more, saving money, or learning a new skill. But what if this year, we flipped the script? What if your resolution wasn't just about you, but about making the world a better place for someone else? At Preserve Our Roots, we're entering 2025 with a vision of service and impact. From growing our social media reach to launching an Artivism Competition connecting schools across Nigeria, we’re committed to empowering communities and advocating for sustainable change. This year, let’s focus on resolutions that last—those rooted in service. Whether it’s planting trees, mentoring youth, or leading climate advocacy in your community, every act of service creates ripples of change. 💡 Let’s make 2025 about more than just individual goals. Together, we can build a future of sustainability, empathy, and shared success. 📖 Read our latest blog post on turning resolutions into sustainable actions: https://lnkd.in/d2VG5_ji What’s your 2025 resolution?

Some of the best chats about sustainability & business I've had this year were at edie's conference. So it's extra-nice to be part of shaping the next event by joining the Advisory Board for #edie25! 🎉 It's two days of sustainability leaders all gathered under one roof, talking about the things that matter (in my case, that's usually communications, engagement and behaviour change but you technical types will be spoilt for choice too...). See what's going on here, and maybe see you there! https://lnkd.in/genJ-DBi ++ P.S. I'm CEO of environmental charity Hubbub. We create campaigns with business, government and civil society that inspire environmental action.
