The event

In a visually-rich and upbeat presentation, Bea covers the importance of applying 5R’s in order (Refuse, Reduce, Reuse, Recycle, Rot) and shatters misconceptions, proving that the Zero Waste lifestyle can not only be “stylish”, but also lead to significant health benefits, and time and money savings. She manages to talk about her personal journey with humor and without preaching. She brings an intimidating topic down to a manageable scale, lending a unique perspective and making Zero Waste less daunting. Her non-judgmental approach will inspire you to reflect on your life and change your own habits. Bea talks about her lifestyle with passion and provides many practical solutions to living simply and reducing waste. The environmentally unaware and eco-minded alike discover a whole world of possibilities. 

Bea Johnson and her family adopted a zero waste lifestyle a decade ago; their household produces a mere pint of trash per year. With her blog and bestseller Zero Waste Home (translated in 18 languages, #1 on Amazon waste cat.), Bea launched a global movement and continues to inspire a growing community to live simply and take a stance against needless waste. She speaks at universities, corporate events and conferences all over the globe, including Google, Pixar, Adobe, the European Parliament and the United Nations. 

Don't miss this opportunity to listen to Bea here in Stockholm and to get a new perspective on how you look at your waste and consequently your life. See you there!
