Ho Xiang Tian | Co-Founder, LepakInSG

Shaping a brighter future

For advocating for systemic change for a better future and shifting the conversation away from individual action

Xiang Tian is the co-founder of informal environmental group LepakInSG, with informal referring to his dress code. The group is lauded for being a social calendar of all the green events unfolding in Singapore. Before that, he had spent nearly half a decade dabbling in various environmental issues and trying to crack the code on creating systemic change. Today he is known for engaging Singapore’s youths to care more about climate change, and one way he goes about doing that is by speaking at rallies. Ultimately, he believes that governments and systems need to change their policies instead of blaming individuals. A role for today’s generation, Xiang Tian is paving the way to a brighter future for all.

 

Olivia Wycech: Olivia is a bon vivant with an insatiable appetite for...everything. Upon being horrified at the amount of rubbish she produced in a single day, her journey towards finding a better balance between being extravagant yet sustainable began. Like most obsessions, down the rabbit hole she went and it wasn’t long before she decided to shift her sustainable preachings from Friday nights after too much wine to every day at Green Is The New Black. Olivia is still trying to figure all this ‘the end of the world’ stuff out, so she is keepin’ it real, one super small #LittleGreenStep at a time. Be like Olivia.
