Anyone can be an environmentalist. But when most people consider the level of work needed, it can be daunting to even try getting involved. Manuel Bergmann is making it easier for anyone to make positive change. He’s a sustainability coach and runs Coaching for Cause, an online platform that helps people improve their lives and their impact on the environment by sharing practical tips and giving them the resources and knowledge they need. “People do care,” Bergmann says, “they’re just not aware yet and when they see the reality and what’s happening, they want to make a difference.” A percentage of the cost of his coaching sessions goes towards funding causes across the globe. These include animal welfare, coral reef restoration, and basic education. Visit coachingforcause.com to learn more.
Footage by Manuel Bergmann was used in the creation of this film.
