Summary |
In this episode we check out the small businesses making a huge impact on social economic issues. We visit Melbourne social enterprise Pollinate Energy, who are lighting up Indian slums with solar lighting, and fly to Hong Kong to drop in on Les Beatitudes, the stay-at-home mums making purses out of neckties to support their family. We head to Brisbane to auto repair shop Brothers Garage, who train up at-risk youth, asylum seekers and the disabled, and visit Dick Smith in his Sydney home to gain his business insight. We also explore the young Australians fighting the global water crisis, and check out a warehouse employing those from disadvantaged backgrounds to recycle mattresses from landfills |
