Our story
This started with us stood in a sea of plastic waste at the end of a festival.
We’d already spent a decade bringing thousands into the climate change movement. Now we were getting our hands dirty (literally!) preventing waste from going into the incinerator.
We pulled together a team of amazing people and collected hundreds of tents and camping equipment.
But we were angry that not enough was being done to stop the world filling with junk.
We were trying to solve the symptoms of a bigger problem: we need to buy better to begin with!
We founded Canopey in a field, and here we are today.
– Hugo and Abrar, Canopey Founders
Our values
Positive
Canopey is an inclusive home for all! We'll support you no matter where you are on your sustainability journey. It’s about being better, not best! And that includes us – we’re always learning so we can be better than we were yesterday.
Bold
We’re not afraid to challenge what’s wrong in the world, and what should be better. We’re always thinking about the big picture and it’s our mission to push the sustainability movement forward.
Informed
We have the knowledge and the data to back things up. But we’re also here to guide you, and that means keeping things clear and simple because you shouldn’t have to be a climate scientist to make sustainable changes!
