Christopher Sewell is the CEO and founder of The Gaia Partnership.
Having spent his working life in the world of marketing communications in a wide range of organizations he formed Gaia in late 2007.
From London to the East coast of Australia and from China to Taiwan Chris has an intimate knowledge of all aspects of operational areas associated with operational, advertising and other marketing services.
The driving force behind forming Gaia was the explosion of businesses claiming 'Carbon neutrality' as a marketing position while not understanding that carbon measurement and reduction should be the focus.
Carbon offsets and neutrality should be the last step after reducing consumption as far as possible.
Chris has a passion for the reducing carbon emissions in the businesses he knows.
