Pleased to introduce you to Joshua O’Neill, founder of The Litter Club in Singapore and Malaysia, who is also a green Project Manager and reef conservation expert, and he studies Conservation Psychology. 

Conservation psychology is the scientific study of the reciprocal relationships between humans and the rest of nature, with a particular focus on how to encourage conservation in the natural world. We discussed a wide range of topics, from why he established The Litter Club, the psychology of why do people not care about waste, how only 5% are really engaged in the waste crisis, and ideas on how we engage the rest. 

Not forgetting the importance of fun if you want to be successful and how we can create the desire to get more people involved!! In a world struggling with separation and real fears for the future, the best focus is to build community connections. 

We covered three core questions:

1.     Conservation psychology – what it means and how it looks in real life

2.     How can people embrace this mindset

3.     Three must dos

Wonderful conversations and insights. Thanks Josh, aka the Energizer Bunny!!
