Rethink Consult - passionate about facilitating positive change...

After several years of dedicated independent research, in the fields of energy, economy and environment, it is apparent these systems do not act in isolation. These systems are inextricably linked. Only by understanding the connectivity and synergies of each system can we truly develop positive solutions and strategies to move forward.

Our holistic approach ensures that risks, vulnerabilities and opportunities are minimised, mitigated or maximised. By raising awareness around systemic challenges we can help identify, collaborate and guide communities, organisations and business towards a more resilient future. Our goal is to help re-position organisations to adapt and thrive in a changing world...

He is driven by his passion to raise awareness of climate chaos and its impact on our daily lives. Steve is a Fellow of ‘Engineers Australia’ and currently chairs the ‘Sustainable Engineering Society’. He has been a climate activist for well over a decade and uses his kayaking journeys to promote awareness and education around these important issues.

Steve has kayaked three continents over a period of twelve months to raise awareness around the climate crisis.

He paddled from Canberra to Sydney, New Orleans to New York, Portishead to Paris for COP 21, and then Ballina to Canberra. Steve challenges the status quo and believes the climate fight will not be won by celebrities, nor the rich and famous. It will be won by ordinary people determined that the future of the human race is paramount.

When Steve is not paddling a river he entertains audiences with his stories, vision and passion for making a more sustainable world. Author of two books, Cry Me A River, One Man's Journey down the Murray Darling with a Kayak on Wheels, and Tough is not enough, Steve believes the climate crisis is all about managing risk.  Steve is an excellent keynote speaker and educates audiences with his adventures, humour and his technical knowledge of the challenges ahead.
