\nWomen In Sustainability Series, episode 7.\xa0
\nIntroducing Sharon Pieksma, former Miss Universe Netherlands 2019, environmentalist and artist, who is on a mission through her work to address the global plastic pollution that is affecting our environment.\xa0
\nOur current series \u2018Women In Sustainability\u2019 is about showcasing the work of female led organisations and individuals who are making a real change to address the needs of climate change.\xa0
\nAnd with this week\u2019s guest, we are showcasing a unique story of a sustainability champion!\xa0
\nBorn in the city of Rotterdam, Sharon has fully immersed herself in the industry as an artist and model. Through everything Sharon does, she is trying to inspire and change people's attitudes and habits so that we use less plastic.\xa0
\nFrom cleaning projects with Dutch school children to educating them on the impacts plastic is having on our environment and getting schools involved with her clean-up projects to having a \u2018plastic free sound studio\u2019 when recording her new songs, Sharon has made a name for herself as an environmentalist.\xa0
\nSharon\u2019s passion and positivity is infectious. The team at Sustainability Champions is lucky to have gotten to know her and learn more about her work in preparation for this week\u2019s episode and we look forward to sharing her story.\xa0
\nSharon stated in the episode \u201cI want to leave the Earth in a better place than I found it\u201d and from her work in music, modelling and travelling, she is doing just that.\xa0
\nOn this week\u2019s podcast episode, we speak to Sharon Pieksma as part of our \u2018Women in Sustainability\u2019 series.\xa0\xa0
