The idea of creating a sustainability blog was born during a residential workshop at Cambridge University where we gathered to study for the CISL Postgraduate in Sustainable Value Chains. We both believe that sustainability has to become a ‘mind-set’ and that driving cultural change is pivotal to make the planet a better place for our children and future generations. We believe that by increasing people’s understanding of sustainability-related topics, by celebrating sustainable development and by presenting different – and at times contrasting – perspectives we can contribute to increasing sustainability understanding and foster positive change. While we hope to attract a wide range of passionate sustainability professionals, we have consciously designed the Sustainable Lifestyle Consultant blog to target a broader audience: anybody who is willing to make the world we live in a better place. Have fun reading our blog & our posts! Simona & Heike For more information about us and our work please visit: www.sustainablelifestyleconsultant.com
