Streaming platform: All streaming platforms
Genre: sports
Manchester United captain and lioness Maya Le Tissier, fashion and lifestyle guru Oli Bromfield, and professional footballer turned content creator Moses Duckrell all want to be more sustainable. We teamed up with PUMA to explore ways to make life a reality.
Green Flags is a podcast where the trio competes against each other in a series of challenges set by sportswear brands to reduce their impact on the planet.
At the end of the five-part video podcast series, the winner with the most points (also known as the Green Flags) will take home the Green Flags trophy.
But before they tackle their first challenges, Tissier, Blomfield and Duckrell have to deal with global health issues, such as wearing new clothes only once or twice and refusing to clean dirty sweatshirts only to buy new ones. I confess that there are times when I am unable to contribute. Forgetting to take a 40-minute shower or taking a plastic bag to the grocery store.
If, like the organizers, you’re concerned about the greenhouse gases you emit, or why everyone needs to do something small to make a big difference, If so, Green Flags can give you an insightful listen on how you can take better care of our planet.
