Brighton – People, Planet, Pint: Sustainability Meetup

21 September, 2023 @ 6:00 pm - 9:00 pm

Free
Come and meet others interested in the Net Zero, Bcorp and Environmental space!

Whether you’re a sustainability professional, small business owner, local council/government worker, student, consultant, looking to switch careers, or anything else besides, come down and meet others interested in sustainability.

No agenda, workshops or webinars. Just chat over some nibbles and beers.

This relaxed event brings together those with a shared passion for sustainability in all its forms.

We meet monthly to chat about what’s going on in the Net Zero / Sustainability space, “network” and meet others who are interested in the industry.

Let’s see where the conversation, and night, takes us!

Chat with other industry experts and talk directly to business owners facing the challenges you’re trying to solve. Find others who can collaborate and help you on your journey and have fun doing so!

Ed Chinn

I’m focused on creating a positive impact through my work, for the wider community and (as much as possible) the planet. Essentially, leaving the world in a better place than I found it. I look to do this connecting people, ideas and insights via groups like People, Planet, Pint! as well as LinkedIn and Twitter. I’m a keen advocate of positive action through innovation, conscious capitalism and building a more circular economy. Via a range of sources, including fellowship of the RSA and podcasts (I highly recommend John Richardson and the Futurenauts!) to name a couple, I am passionate about educating myself about how I can be a better citizen and ancestor.
