I’ve decided to highlight the amazing Sarah Backhouse (as EcoDiva of the Week) as a special thank you for allll the hard work she put in helping me to make EcoDivas extra-specially ecodivalicious!!!  So excited to be having the OFFICIAL EcoDivasTV.com LAUNCH PARTY!  I couldn’t have done it without you.

Media maven, global citizen and free thinker, half-English, half-Japanese, Sarah Backhouse was born in the UK and raised in Australia and Japan. Her career as a TV host, writer and producer has taken her from Sydney to London to Los Angeles where she’s worked for a diverse array of broadcasters including: CNBC, BBC, PBS, Fine Living, Sci Fi Channel, NOW.com, WOWOW, Discovery, The G Living Network, Causecast.com and, most recently, Planet Green.

At G Living, Sarah covered the gamut of green: interviewing architects, filmmakers, politicians, designers, environmentalists, celebrities, musicians and other brilliant minds in the green space as well as treading numerous green carpets, attending eco-fashion shows, testing organic beauty products and whipping up plant-based cuisine.

Sarah firmly believes green is more than a fringe movement or a fad. It’s simply the future. Through various forms of media, Sarah strives to entertain and provoke, inform and inspire; to do what it takes to get people thinking about and acting upon this most fundamental of issues that affects us all.

When she’s not being an EcoDiva, Sarah hosts Planet Green’s Environmental News in 100 Seconds or Less, is Current Affairs Editor for Coco Eco Magazine and is on the Entertainment and Media Committee of the UN’s International Renewable Energy Organization (IREO).
