Our actions have contributed to the climate change we face today, but how do thoughts and consciousness impact climate change?
What we say, what we do, and what we feel – all have their origin in the mind.
The energy of the human mind is one of the greatest, but least understood, energy resources. When we understand and harness this energy, we possess the key to a sustainable future.
Jon Green, Chief Executive of the Vegetarian Society
Jon was originally a philosophy graduate but he is much better now! He spent his formative professional years in the Ministry of Defence and the Cabinet Office where the main focus of his work was management reform. Since then he has completed his PhD, worked in homelessness and naturally moved on to take the reins at the Vegetarian Society.
Dr Sonny Khan
Sonny graduated from Aberdeen University with a PhD in Mathematics in 1997. He spent six years as a teacher before leaving work in 2008. Sonny has been a full time activist for the last six years, working on trade justice and environmental issues.
