Lyreco partner with OneGreenThing to empower climate action

Published

By CPC Helpdesk

Approved CPC framework suppliers Lyreco UK & Ireland have partnered up with environmental non-profit OneGreenThing, an organisation dedicated to transforming eco-anxiety into positive action through small, joyful daily habits.

The collaboration strengthens Lyreco’s ongoing commitment to sustainability through their Lyreco Goodness programme, which champions doing the right thing for people, the planet, and the communities they serve.

As the climate crisis continues to affect lives across the globe, people, and especially younger generations, are increasingly impacted by eco-anxiety. OneGreenThing was created to address this very issue.

The charity’s mission is to empower individuals to take just one manageable action each day to support the environment and boost their mental wellbeing. These actions, while simple, build momentum and contribute to real, lasting cultural change.

Founded by author, speaker and climate leader Heather White, OneGreenThing brings together her experience working with global organisations and her passion for public mental health.

Heather's belief is that climate action does not have to be overwhelming - it can be empowering, community-driven, even fun.

To kick off the partnership, Lyreco and OneGreenThing have launched the Lyreco Goodness Service Superpower Assessment.

This a free tool that helps users discover how their natural strengths align with different types of climate action.

Based on personality traits and preferences, participants are matched with one of seven 'Superpowers'.

Each of the roles (Sage, Beacon, Spark, Philanthropist, Wonk, Influencer and Adventurer) represents a unique approach, from educating and advocating to connecting, exploring or supporting others, and suggests one area you can focus on.

Mike Milward, Managing Director at Lyreco UK & Ireland, said: “After reading (the 2022 book) 'OneGreenThing' by Heather White and learning about the work the OneGreenThing charity does, I straight away saw the links with Lyreco Goodness.

"Lyreco Goodness is about doing the right thing and enhancing social value within our wider community. Young people are impacted by many global issues. With Lyreco partnering with our education customers, it’s important for us to help support young people and our customers in tackling these wider issues.

"OneGreenThing helps everyone, not only young people, to act in a positive, joyful way that leads to a bigger culture change.

"Having done the Superpower Assessment, I was deemed to be an Influencer, which highlights my strength in connecting people to their cause and inspiring them to act, grow, and change their behaviour.

This year and into 2026, Lyreco and OneGreenThing will be working closely together to deliver tools, campaigns and activities that help employees, customers and the education community take meaningful steps toward sustainability, while supporting mental wellbeing at every stage.

The goal is not just to act, but to create a culture where everyone feels empowered and equipped to play their part.

Discover your Superpower and take a first step toward joyful climate action today.
