E020 - Hermione Taylor from Do Nation

This is a great episode about a phenomenal and inspiring lady that set up ‘networking’ and ‘communications’ solution that helps us increase awareness and reduce the environmental impact within organisations. Hermione Taylor is founder of Do Nation, an online platform designed to help people form healthy, environmentally friendly habits. Through Do Nation, she’s worked with over 100 organisations, from Nando’s to Network Rail, Ella’s Kitchen to Edinburgh University, helping to engage their employees in sustainability. Do Nation was born out of Hermione's non-profit project whereby individuals can raise support for marathons, cycle rides, or even weddings in the form of action instead of cash. Instead of donating £5, supporters pledge to try out a new carbon-saving action – e.g. cycle to work, use less plastic, or avoid unsustainable palm oil.
