Our storY

EST. 2020

Ben Brown and Ciara Doyle are the co-founders of Going Green Media, a planet-first, solution-oriented media brand filming green projects around the world that inspire action. 

Growing up, Ben and Ciara observed a lack of optimistic, solution-based media in the world, covering the people and organisations combatting real, yet solvable, issues, and bettering their communities, as well as the planet.

With the prevalence of digital media driving climate conversations today, Going Green Media has developed a unique style of storytelling, engaging with millions of individuals monthly online. Over the last four years of operation, Ben and Ciara themselves have visited over 200 projects, continue to work with some of the planet’s most influential brands and organisations, and empower the people devoting their lives to bettering our planet to share their stories of hope for the future. Their work has been featured in Forbes, Euronews, Travel + Leisure, and VegNews among others.

OUR IMPACT

We acknowledge that alongside the impact of our existence on this planet, our job as filmmakers and content creators often requires us to travel further and more frequently than the average person.

 

We have been vegan for a collective 14 years, we do not own a car, and we use bicycles, walking, and public transport as our main modes of transportation on a daily basis. For work trips that do require travel abroad, we always opt for train travel where possible. 

 

We are also extremely selective in the jobs we choose to take overseas that require air travel, and ensure that our travel to these places is done for the sake of telling critical stories that are sharing solutions that we believe are having an immense, positive impact on our world. We often turn down jobs too that require us to travel a great distance for only a short time, and are strongly opposed to greenwashing of any kind. You can read more about this below.

We hope that through scientific and technological development, air travel can be made less harmful to the planet very soon; however, in the meantime, as we must sometimes use air travel for our business, we have ensured that we are a climate positive workforce, as certified over the last few years by Ecologi.

Since 2021, we have helped fund global reforestation projects, peatland restoration projects, carbon capture systems, renewable energy generation, and clean community projects across the globe.
