Episode #65 of Season 2 of The Social Impactors Podcast features #SocialImpactor Lilly Woodbury, Regional Coordinator with Surfrider Canada, a community of everyday people who passionately protect our playground - the ocean, waves, and beaches that provide us so much enjoyment.
Lilly Woodbury was born in Tofino but grew up on the Great Lakes in Northern Ontario, where she cultivated a love for the outdoors and the natural wonders of the planet. As the Regional Coordinator of Surfrider Canada, she concentrates on creating and implementing campaigns that eliminate single-use plastics, implement circular recycling practices for petroleum products and works with youth, the public government and businesses to take positive action the coastline. She has an Honours Bachelor of Arts in Environmental Studies from the University of Toronto, and also worked for Greenpeace New Zealand. Lilly won Starfish Canada's Top 25 Environmentalists Under 25 in Canada in 2018 and has appeared on GlobalBC and CTV broadcast news to weigh in on policy-driven solutions around plastic waste management and recycling for ocean conservation.
In this podcast episode, Lilly and I talk about the importance of corporations and businesses to lead the change on sustainable businesses, what it means to be a leader in the movement to protect the outdoors and the natural wonders of the planet, and how her life has led her to be in a position of enacting positive policy changes for our future.
