S3 #9 'My journey to creating the Airbnb for Tents', with Rebecca Heaps
"Consumerist society has all of it, but Nature, Nature has no Marketing budget." π³
We were thrilled to welcome Rebecca Heaps for the penultimate episode of the EcoSend Podcast with our host, James Gill.
Rebecca is a fantastic advocate for the Regenerative Business movement, and is pioneering the sharing economy with her platform Tentshare - also known as the 'Airbnb for Tents' ποΈ
In this episode, Rebecca taught us a ton about:
π The Concept of 'Use Intensity', and how this defines whether a purchase is wasteful, sustainable, or regenerative.
πThe importance of facilitating equal-access to Nature.
π Creating a business focused on the Triple Bottom Line; Planet, People, Profit.
βοΈ How she worked with CampLight to save 85 tons(!) of carbon during the recent festival season.
... and much more! β¨
This was an incredibly uplifting episode, you really get a sense of Rebecca's energy and her passion for Tentshare's mission π
So sit back and soak up this heart-warming episode, as Rebecca takes us on a journey through the sharing economy, and how we can move towards a future of Regenerative Businesses.
