    May 14 2025

    🎙 B Corps in Ireland: James McManus on Earth’s Edge, Ethical Expeditions & Adventure with Impact

    James McManus is the founder and expedition leader behind Earth’s Edge— & director of B Corp Ireland. Earth's Edge is an adventure travel company, creating life-changing experiences in some of the world’s most stunning and remote places. Since 2007, Earth’s Edge has been leading small group expeditions to the likes of Kilimanjaro, the Himalayas and the Andes, all while putting sustainability and social impact at the heart of every journey.

    In this episode of ESG Made Easy, we chat with James about how Earth’s Edge became a certified B Corp in 2021, the challenges and joys of running a purpose-led travel company, and what sustainability looks like at high altitude.

    We dive into James’ journey from passionate adventurer to social entrepreneur, and how becoming a B Corp helped crystallise the company’s commitment to people, planet and performance—without compromising on the thrill of expedition.

  • B Corp in Ireland with THINKHOUSE, Laura Costello
    Apr 23 2025

    🎙B Corps in Ireland: Laura Castello on THINKHOUSE, Youth Culture & the Moment They Knew


    Laura Costello is Head of Sustainability & Planet Services at THINKHOUSE, and Ireland Lead at Purpose Disruptors, a non profit working to change the story of advertising. With 10+ years in the communications industry, she is responding to the climate and nature crisis through strategy, storytelling, imagination and community building. Accelerating cultural and business transformation for a thriving future, she works with a range of clients across the corporate, public and not for profit/NGO sectors. Laura is also a Clean Creatives ambassador.


    In this episode of ESG Made Easy, we sit down with Laura Castello, from THINKHOUSE—an award-winning youth marketing agency and one of Ireland’s newest B Corps.

    Laura shares her journey with THINKHOUSE since 2015 and the powerful moment that sparked their B Corp certification decision (spoiler alert: it involves a book, a colleague, and a bold boardroom moment). We explore how certification has opened doors to new clients, shaped sustainability-driven campaigns like Good Life 2030, and earned THINKHOUSE a spot as an Irish Government SDG Champion.

    You’ll also hear about:

    Laura’s top sustainability book picks:

    1. The Overstory by Richard Powers
    2. Braiding Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimmerer
    3. Citizens by Jon Alexander

    ✨ Why THINKHOUSE chose B Corp (and what was holding them back)

    🌍 How youth culture is a powerful force in reshaping brand sustainability

    📊 The power of B Corp’s proof points, global recognition, and simplicity

    💡 Campaigns that navigate the tension between consumption and sustainability
