Blue Futures Studio is the teaming up of individuals passionate for the environment and people, and who have a deep understanding of both the current planetary crisis and business.
Desperately concerned about the plight of our planetary systems and how the economic and human drivers have been negatively impacting the future of life on this earth, Blue Futures Studio has been created as a change enabler: bringing Awareness, then Educating and empowering all to make meaningful Action take place.
With decades of experience to pull from, we have a deep and broad view on the challenges and opportunities across the business and sustainability spectrum - we also have a very clear view on how these topics have not traditionally supported each other.
Our love for the planet originated in our love for the ocean and all the creatures that live as a result of it. But it was only during the last few years of work - and through our travels and cultural experiences - by diving deep into understanding more about the meta-crisis, that we have come to realise the sheer magnitude of the predicament we are in.
We also learnt that by looking at the world with a new lens we can see a better way for humans to thrive in a thriving nature. We have subsequently spent a number of years focussing on creating working environments, cultures and changes in attitudes that connect people to the planet.
We believe in the need for people to understand, connect and collaborate on all these topics. We believe that everyone has a key part to play and that it is better to have many people making small, positive steps than a few behaving perfectly.
Making change happen is not easy. Making meaningful change happen is even harder. Bringing in new ways of thinking about people, sustainability and the environment into your organisation will always be challenging - but it is needed, and we're here to help.
Our experienced team will help you navigate your way through strategy creation, behaviour change and create meaningful purpose with long-term impact for you, your people, your customers, your business and the planet.
Our approach to these topics brings to life all aspects of environmental reality, removes tunnel vision and helps overcome biases. Our sole goal is to empower and enable a network of changemakers, who work collaboratively together for, and on behalf of, the planet and all life.
