Julia Hailes is a freelance consultant and well-known speaker on social, environmental and ethical issues. Her work includes environmental reviews, management briefings and advising companies on policy, strategy and communications.
Julia wrote the original Green Consumer Guide in 1987. It was the first book of its kind and sold a million copies worldwide.
