Maybe you started composting this year. Maybe you got that solar quote. Perhaps it was the year you test-drove an EV or repaired a shirt or wrote a submission in support of some renewable energy projects in your area. It might also be the year you’ve decided to step out from thinking just about just the personal actions you can take and have decided to share your messages with others in your area. 
No matter who you are or what you have started, please keep going. The action only happens when you act. You got this. Follow us for more advice on sustainability and communicating environmental messages. #sustainabilityeducation #electrifyeverything #sustainabilitytips #sustainabiltiyspeaking #climateaction

Because practice makes perfect right? New sustainability educators want to communicate solutions to audiences but can lack the confidence to show up when starting out. Join our webinar on Feb 15th for tips on communicating with confidence.

The fresh start effect can be used when you’re moving, in a new relationship, even when you just get back from holiday. It’s exactly why when the calendar ticks over to a new year that we start setting goals and resolutions. 🗓️ You’ve seen ours, now what are you cleaning out and what are you aiming to do in 2024? Tell us below 👇🏽

It’s nearly time for us to jump off for the year, but we want to say Hey 👋 Hey to the people who’ve trusted us to run programs with this year 👋 Hey to the educators who are stepping into workshops with us for the first time 👋 And Hey to the doers who have changed behaviours at home and nudged your families, neighbours and communities to come with you 👋 2024 is looking pretty great with you all by our side so thank you for making this year so good! 😊 Thanks from Jo, Anna and Maitreyi 👋

Coming in hot with what our community have been talking about the last few weeks… What’s got you talking? 🗣️

There are 5 steps to a great workshop 🗣️ 1. Get the brief- think not just about the date, time and budget, but the objectives, learning outcomes, audience, tech set up, room layout and flow of the day. 2. Plan the session - in the meantime, how might we get the most out of the audience? How might we want the people to feel, what do we want them to walk away with that they didn’t have before and importantly, how can we get them to this point? 3. Create the session aids- use simple, easy communication tools that give people a prompt, which helps you to manage your time and gives extra learning guides to back up your points. 4. Refine and adapt your work- this is critical. Rework things that don’t flow, rethink things that are going to suck. 5. Present- time to bring it all together! Workshop presentation gets quicker and quicker as you do it and with the right practices, should be a fun and easy process to follow. Want to learn more about how to become an environmental educator?

Lights 💡Camera 🎥 Satisf-Action. 😊 Being an environmental communicator delivers all the feels.

Even when it’s 💩 , it’s not 💩. If I’m honest…that’s the truth. 
When I get paid to do speaking or presenting or launch courses, even on the very worst of days, it’s better than my old life. I often wonder why that is? And there’s no one answer… 💩It’s partly because I’m my own boss in this work. Accountable only to me. That’s hot. 💩It’s partly because I’m working on solutions and action and optimism and that’s pretty great. 💩Its increasingly because of the people I work with and feeling like I’ve found ‘my tribe.’ 💩And it’s partly because the lifestyle works for me and my family. 💩There’s no one scenario when you are an environmental communicator. 
It can be a side hustle, a volunteer pursuit, the start of a business idea, an additional service you add to your current business. If you’d ask me if it’s worth it? Heck yeah it is.

Doesn’t have to just be in your head! Even before you start something, there’s a thought in your head that it could be an exciting new opportunity. But things get in the way, right? You’re too busy. You are worried you don’t know enough about a topic or how to package it up. Or worse, you’re worried no one even cares that you have cool solutions which work for you. Imagine pushing all that aside for a moment and letting yourself try. We know that big things happen when we let ourselves get stuck in. So why not start?

Sound familiar 👉🏽 “I really want to (start workshops/do more speaking/pitch my cool idea/start talking to local businesses) but I’m not (ready/confident/good enough) yet.” Guess what, almost every opportunity or thing we have ever done, we doubted whether we were going to be able to do it. I remember one particular event I sat in a room for 30 minutes alone trying to find reasons why I could go home as I just thought I would do a terrible job. But I’ve never let doubt or fear stop me, and with practice has come progress. I’ve got better and more effective and more impactful because of it. The triple threats of climate, ocean pollution and biodiversity loss are calling us all now. The luxury of time isn’t ours. But when we don’t feel able to contribute beyond our own four walls of our home, we can feel isolated, helpless and disconnected. The reality is we are never quite where we want to be,and that’s ok. Perhaps we are exactly the message someone needs to hear just the way we are.

*Jo here* I’ll be voting YES for a Voice to Parliament at the upcoming referendum. Because I want to live in a country that recognises Indigenous Australians in our founding document. The Voice will allow Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people to have a say on the issues and policies that affect them. When we listen to local Indigenous communities we make better policy decisions. That’s why the voice will make a practical difference - and more than 80% of Indigenous Australians support the Voice. This is a once in a generation opportunity to unite our nation and walk together into a better future. #yes23 #voteyes

We asked and you told us. “What advice do you have for others looking to start taking action on social and environmental issues?” We’ll be sharing lots of the good advice, but what’s yours? 👇🏽 #goodforthehood

We get told daily that ‘individual action is a waste of time’. And we’d agree, except we see daily examples of the impact it makes when other systems change accompanies it. Imagine if no one took it upon themselves to live in allignment with the world they want to see? Imagine if Mike Cannon Brookes said, “I’m just going to stick to being a millionaire”, or Greta Thunberg said, “I’d really rather not try these strikes,” or Rebecca Prince Ruiz said, “There’s no point trying to live plastic-free.” Imagine if every person with money and influence, every employer, every director, start-up founder, employee and mum and dad did their bit? Imagine they said, “Yep, here’s my backyard; I’ve got it sorted as best I can and here’s where I can step out of it and influence more change.” Wherever you are, you have immense influence. To us, it’s about how you acknowledge it, how you use it or whether you’re just expecting someone else to come in and save the day. Life is short, and our window to enact critical climate action is shorter; please do the things, individual and beyond. #dogood #climateaction #goodforthehood

Happy World Environment Day. Jo here. Tasked with the job of finding a picture that sums up World Environment Day to me. I choose this one. Might seem weird. But this is my 11yo’s foot. Firstly I took this picture as the Velcro had broken on his school shoes and I wanted to see if I could get it repaired. We did find a repairer and got it paid for by the manufacturer. So he continues to wear these shoes a little longer. But look a bit closer and you see the ground of the planet we live and connect on daily and behind him is the footprints of what he’s going to leave behind. In 2050 my son will be 38. He is my driving force for climate action, the reason I care so much and the person I want to teach more than anyone to protect what made him. Happy World Environment Day, what image would you share to sum up the day for you? #worldenvironmentday #WED2023

Anna here: Packing school lunches can be hard enough without the added challenge of finding sustainable alternatives to snacks that kids love. Here are a few ways I’ve found that help to reduce food and plastic waste: We love our cooler bags and Bento-style lunch boxes. Finding a bento box with individually sealed sections means that sandwiches, bread rolls and sushi stays fresh without needing single-use sandwich bags or cling wrap and I can include cookies and crackers without buying them in multipack servings. We swap out yoghurt pouches for Greek yoghurt and frozen fruit to keep it cool in reusable yoghurt pots, and the kids know to bring their fruit scraps home to add to the compost bin.

Now that it's autumn and the leaves are starting to fall... did you know that fallen leaves put organic matter back into our soils? But they need to get out of the gutter first.

Happy International Women's Day! 👭⁠ ⁠ Today, we celebrate the incredible strength, resilience, and achievements of women around the world. Good For the Hood is proudly female owned and led. To me, today means recognising and honouring the contributions of women in all aspects of life, and advocating for equality and empowerment. It’s also about acknowledging the incredible role women play in solving the climate crisis and acknowledging the harsh reality that women and girls are adversely impacted by climate risks and extremes. It’s never been more important to advocate and celebrate women who are shifting the conversation and changing the system.⁠ ⁠ What does Women's Day mean to you?

Say goodbye to fast fashion and hello to a conscious wardrobe! 🌍🧵⁠ ⁠ The fast fashion industry has devastating effects on our planet and its people. It's time to break the cycle and switch to better fashion. By choosing quality over quantity, supporting B corp brands, buying pre-loved and repairing what we have, we can make a positive impact with every purchase.⁠ ⁠ Jo here: I'll never forget the time I found my first high-end designer item that made my heart skip a beat. It was a red top by Roland Mouret, which was perfectly tailored and lined. Even the zips were heavy and gold. I found it inside a Vinnies store in North Ryde and when I googled how much it would retail for, realised that this near $450 top was going to be mine for $14! The top continues to make me feel special when I wear it and because it's such great quality I think it will make the next person who owns it very happy too.

Let's all make a difference by being more mindful of our consumption and disposal! Remember, none of these items should be littered and batteries need to go in special collections (not your curbside bin). Check with your council for your nearest and other tips on which bin things should go in. Here are some easy ways to reduce the waste you create and impact you make: ⁠ ♻️ Bring a reusable water bottle with you wherever you go.⁠ ♻️Treat yourself to a reusable coffee cup for your daily dose of caffeine.⁠ ♻️ When planning a birthday party or gathering, choose reusable plates over single use ones.⁠ ♻️Collect a few pieces of litter, even if it's not yours next time you're at the beach, playground or park .⁠ ♻️Put the right things in the right bin.⁠ ⁠ Together, we can create a good future!

Jo here: I'll never forget the first time I got involved in a group cleaning up the reserve behind my house. I didn't really know I cared about the trees, I didn't really want to weed the area. But I liked the people who invited me and I wanted to eat cake with them and drink tea. Fast forward a few months and I was a regular at the group and my passion for the project grew so much that I starting looking for more ways to make a difference. When we feel we have a community we are part of, doing good is so much easier.
