Joost Bakker: Tackling Our Toxic World

How can we preserve our environment, while living in a world of excess? Joining Sarah Grynberg is Australian designer, floral artist, eco-warrior, and champion of no-waste living, Joost Bakker. Famously described by the New York Times as “the poster boy for zero-waste living,’ Sarah and Joost sit down to discuss why food is medicine for health and longevity; the power of taking action; and the beauty that lies within man making peace and harmony with the environment. If you are seeking to live a natural, more sustainable lifestyle within the limits of your own urban landscape, then let this conscious exchange and Joost’s expressive viewpoint not only motivate you to live your life mindfully, but make you aware of what our ecosystem greatly needs: in order to thrive and flourish in our own backyard.

Checkout Joost's film: GREENHOUSE BY JOOST which will be released in Australian cinemas in November:
