👋 Welcome
Transitioning to a more sustainable world means lots of things adding up… but following progress and getting any kind of overview can be challenging.
That’s where Green Box comes in.
I share sustainability-related stories, books and media releases you may have missed from the previous week.
Spanning topics like energy, food, tech, finance, conservation, the environment and beyond - Green Box is the perfect way to hit refresh!
Start your week curious, hopeful and prepped to navigate our fast-changing world.
👉 Who Is Green Box For?
Maybe you’re a CEO in Texas, an activist in London, a banker in Hong Kong or an artist in the Scottish Highlands.
Whoever and wherever you are, you’ll find a useful update and a shot of perspective here to start your week.
Many of us appreciate the urgent sustainability crisis we’re in but lots of empty promises are made every week. Check in with Green Box to see how people around the world are actually moving sustainable transitions forward.

✒️ Who writes Geen Box ?
Authorship of Green Box remains anonymous for neutrality reasons and because the sustainability story isn’t about me, it’s about all of us.
Suffice to say, I work in the sustainability space and created Green Box because I wanted to read a newsletter like it.
At the moment I only have time to cover three main stories each week plus a book and film release. Most weeks I’ll also offer some thoughts sparked by the news.
