In conversation with Ed Gillespie: Only planet - A flight-free adventure around the world

DateTimeGMTOnline

Ed Gillespie is co-founder of Futerra, a communications company with a mission to make sustainable development so desirable it becomes normal.

Join Ed as he shares stories from his book, Only Planet, which tells an inspirational tale of global adventure taking anything but a plane to circumnavigate the world. Cargo ships to camels, hitch-hiking to hovercrafts. Playing table tennis with heavyweight Ukrainian boxers. Border arrests and drug searches. Communing with a Costa Rican jungle sloth. Ed's journey brings to vivid life the joys, and challenges, of slow, low carbon, overland travel. 

En route Ed realised that staying grounded in an age of climate change may lead us to rediscover the pleasures of what real travel is all about. Through the journey and adventure he delves into the philosophy of sustainable travel, reconnecting with community and our one and only lonely planet.

The Mishcon Academy offers outstanding legal, leadership and skills development for legal professionals, business leaders and individuals. Our learning experts create industry leading experiences that create long-lasting change delivered through live events, courses and bespoke learning.
