Brisbane - Small99's People, Planet, Pint™: Sustainability Meetup

Pop down to your local People Planet Pint meetup to find more about what's going on locally with sustainability and how you can get involved.

No pitches, powerpoints or panels. Just People, Planet, Pint/s.

Your local meetup is a great place to start your journey or continue learning, and meet diverse people to chat about life and how we can sustain it. Every job is a climate job, so come along and learn about how you can take action, as well as what is going on locally.

We welcome everyone, regardless of their experience or background. People Planet Pint is a space where everyone can feel comfortable learning about sustainability and sharing their ideas.

Afterall, creating a sustainable future requires connected communities. And what better way to bring everyone together than over a drink?

Alex Furey has spent the majority of his career in London where he previously worked in waste prevention for the second largest waste authority in the UK. Most recently, he was running a company called Zero Waste Mindset, delivering zero waste corporate training and events for the employees of corporate clients. Alex also ran a community called Zero Waste London, which was the largest zero waste community in the UK.

For over two decades, Sarah Woolmington, an engagement specialist, has collaborated with corporations to enhance their stakeholder engagement strategies. In 2021, she recognised the pivotal role of engaging teams in sustainability discussions for organisations to advance their sustainability objectives. Consequently, she expanded her consulting services to incorporate this aspect. In 2023, she established Impact Dragonfly, a sustainability engagement organisation dedicated to empowering teams and stakeholders to contribute to sustainability solutions.

Please note: We will be gathering outside on the rooftop terrace but there will be outside heaters available. However please bring a coat or appropriately warm clothing to ensure that you will be comfortable.

You'll see the People Planet Pint signs on the table to indentify us and please ask for Sarah or Alex who will be delighted to welcome you!

Walk down that corridor and enter the lifts at the end.Take the lift up to the 4th floor.Exit the lift and walk straight ahead down a short corridor, and then take the first right and you will see the Hibiscus Bar & Terrace directly ahead.We will be outside on the roof terrace to the right near some standing height tables. Look for the Blue Planet People table signs.
