Andy Marks was the impact producer as part of the team behind series one of ABC TV's War on Waste. An ABC TV documentary watched by millions of Australians that brought our attention to crazy and unnecessary waste in the food, packaging and fashion industries. While showing the impact of our everyday decisions such as plastic shopping bags, recycling and buying a single-use coffee.

Andy was the War on Waste impact producer for series 1 and led the impact strategy design, planning and impact community launch for series 2.

Before and after the television series Andy has worked tirelessly to create change in the world, whether it be reducing waste, sharing stories or helping us think differently, his heart is definitely in the right place.
