Laura Wilson — "The Tidy Kiwi"

This week is an exciting first for Climactic, with two Kiwis in the studio. Mark talks to Laura Wilson of Big Little Brush, a social enterprise in Melbourne using bamboo toothbrushes to do much, much more. Laura's story before getting involved with Big Little Brush is extremely relatable, and we talk landfills, minimalism, and backpacking through Europe.

Then we dig into Big Little Brush, their mission to stop plastic toothbrushes pouring into tips, and how they support oral healthcare projects in Indigineous communities around Australia. This is a really positive and uplifting episode, and we hope you enjoy it!

Mark Spencer

Hello!
I'm Mark, and I'm a podcast addict. I've turned my tens of thousands of misbegotten hours binging history, comedy, and everything in-between into being a keen collaborator on audio projects (climate, local stories, place-based audio especially).

I work with passionate people to turn their ideas into published projects, when I'm not working in the renewable energy space in Naarm/Melbourne.
