Michael Stewart is a social entrepreneur focused on driving innovations in sustainability, and he Co-founded environmental nonprofit Sustainable Surf, with the intent of transforming the culture (and business worth ~9 $Billon annually) of surfing into a truly sustainable model, capable of inspiring positive behavioral lifestyle changes in individuals. These changes, when multiplied by millions of people making better choices on a daily basis about how they live their lives, provide the foundation for how we can fix the root causes of our broken system, instead of just constantly mitigating the symptoms. Underlying all these intentions is Michael’s lifelong passion for the surfing experience, his gratitude for the simple, but honest lessons it has to teach, and the pure joy that slipping & sliding around on waves provides.
