Our Team

We have a very small and dedicated team of environmentally conscious individuals who are driven to building a sustainable future for us all. 

Rebecca Talbot Growing Green Communities Founder

Rebecca Talbot

Rebecca is a professional environmentalist and environmental educator. Her career has so far taken her all over the world. In 2019 she spent a fantastic year coordinating trips for schools in Thailand's rich and diverse ecosystems. During this year she noticed a need for a sustainable network and an active eco-community, which is where Growing Green Communities was born.

He has been passionate about the environment since he was young and Growing Green Communities is the perfect mix of his passions, community empowerment projects, and working to improve the state of the environment.

Collaborators

Thailand

sang foundation

Sang Foundation

The Sang Foundation was created to raise public awareness that plastic waste is now at a critical level and more and more marine animals are painfully dying because of our addiction to plastic. They were a co-organiser of the Bangkok eco-event and plan to continue hosting charitable, environmental events in Thailand.

Traidhos Barge Program

The Barge Program teaches the next generation of eco-warriors about the environment, through environmental education field trips and community engagement activities. They are a team of enthusiastic environmentalists, with backgrounds in marine science, geography, wildlife conservation and ecology. Rebecca (previously employed by Traidhos) and the team used their skills to deliver a sustainable market, and grow a green Bangkok. We look forward to the next one!
