About this listen
Everyone says echo chambers are bad. But they helped us build something remarkable.
When we started helping organisations reduce their environmental impact at Green Element, most of the world thought what we were doing was a bit odd. The answer wasn't to seek out sceptics. It was to find our people: the B Corp network, sustainability-minded founders, people like James Gibb and Darren Chadwick who understood why this work mattered.
That echo chamber normalised what we were doing. It gave us endorsement and validation at a time when the mainstream hadn't caught up yet. Being surrounded by people who get it doesn't just feel good, it actually helps you push further and faster.
There's a lot of noise about the dangers of echo chambers, and I'll cover the bad side in a follow-up video. But if you're pioneering something new in sustainability or net zero, choosing your circle carefully isn't a weakness. It's a strategy.
