How do you balance your own consumption habits with sustainability?

In this episode, we delve into the complex relationship between consumerism and sustainability. Featuring insights and highlights from a recent panel discussion held during the 2025 Climate Action Week at UTS, the conversation covers the urgency of decarbonisation, the impact of consumer behaviour, and the role of businesses in driving sustainable change.

The discussion also tackles the complex balance between profitability and sustainability, the necessity for transparency to combat greenwashing, and the emerging need for collaboration across sectors to drive meaningful change. Professor Martina Linnenluecke joins host Ali Aitken to provide further insights on these important issues.

The panel:

  • Professor Martina Linnenluecke, Director, UTS Centre for Climate Risk and Resilience
  • Catherine King, Chief Strategy Officer at Leo Burnett
  • Nicky Sparshott, Former Global Chief of Transformation Unilever & CEO Unilever ANZ and Chair, UTS Vice-Chancellor’s Industry Advisory Board
