In this episode, we sit down with Megan Harper, Sustainability Manager at Bayfields Opticians and Audiologists, to explore her inspiring journey from communications professional to sustainability leader.
Megan shares how she turned a monthly committee meeting into a fully-fledged sustainability strategy—eventually pitching a brand-new role to the board and earning their support. She walks us through what net zero actually means for a multi-practice optical business, the surprising complexity of Scope 3 emissions, and why measuring your impact is the essential first step before making meaningful change.
We also discuss how sustainability is reshaping talent attraction, why the optical industry is just beginning to wake up to environmental responsibility, and the real business value that comes from aligning your company's operations with its values.
Whether you're starting your own sustainability journey or looking for practical insights on embedding environmental responsibility into business strategy, this conversation is for you.
