Feedback from Presentations
“Just a short note to thank you
for a very interesting
presentation at
last nights meeting. I know that the Members and Officers present
gained some valuable information and ideas from you and I have already
had the Chairman on the phone to say what a positive and useful meeting
she thought it was.”
Rochford District Council
“Everybody I talked to after the
meeting was very pleased with
your talk. I'm sure it has motivated each of us to reduce our emissions
and spread the message. On behalf of FEN I want to thank you very much
for giving us a boost at our launch”
FEN
“Well done! I loved your speech in the Green Day at the RIBA ! “
“By the way, one of our new
admin assistants here told me this
morning he knew nothing of green issues - it was all a distant buzzing
on the news - until he heard your presentation at Sadlers Wells. He is
now suddenly aware, full of questions, looking things up on the web,
discussing such options as biofuels with friends, and worrying about
how his home country Nigeria is wasting its oil reserves.”

“Thank you, I found the
MotivAction seminar very interesting,
especially enjoyed the talk by the Eco writer Donnachadh
McCarthy.”
Delegate from Deloitte’s
“I just wanted to thank you
again for your contribution to our
session on “blueprints for change towards a zero carbon future” last
week. You were excellent, and the feedback from the session was
extremely positive. Your suggestions on what individuals can do were so
simple and obvious and compelling, and you put it all across in such a
persuasive, almost humble way. It would be so easy to make people feel
bad, but you didn’t, you did it in a way that tried to inspire people
to do better which I felt was exactly the right approach.”
