ZOE HERTELENDI

Zoe believes that sustainability is about the relationship between humans and the environment, present and future. Everything we do today has an invisible but real consequence and impact on tomorrow. When Zoe isn’t partnering with Earthology to run talks and workshops, she runs her own company Edamame. Zoe is on a mission to clean up and fix the dirty traditional promotional products industry, change habits and educate people on the benefits of sustainable living. Edamame has a range of hand-picked, environmentally conscious products that provide you with the opportunity to make wiser choices about the products you purchase for a more sustainable and socially conscious planet.
