- Robert van Tol, Water Revolution Foundation
We love fan mail: text us with your feedback and ideas
Robert van Tol is the executive director and co-founder of the Water Revolution Foundation. He's spent more than a decade working with a variety of non-profits, especially within the superyacht sector. Those experiences partially inspired him to establish this particular non-profit in late 2018, as Diane M. Byrne, the host of Megayacht News Radio, discusses with him in this episode. The two further discuss Water Revolution Foundation's sustainability goals, and how people like you can support the initiatives. In fact, to that end, van Tol is particularly fond of an African proverb: “If you want to go fast, go alone; if you want to go far, go together.”Thanks for listening!
