In this episode, Kiarne sits down with Marcel Sieira, Chief Operating Officer at GS1 Australia, for a fascinating conversation about the humble barcode. Yes, you read that right! They discuss how the barcodes we scan on everyday products might be the most powerful tool on earth for complete and precise tracking and traceability.

Learn about the global rollout of 2D barcodes—the first evolution of the linear barcode in 50 years.

Plus, get the latest on Digital Product Passports in the EU, what to expect in Australia, and key insights into the tracking and traceability regulations that product suppliers need to know for 2025 and beyond.

You won’t believe how much these two have in common!

As the founder of Sustainability Tracker, an app that uses GS1 data to help consumers make more informed purchasing decisions, Kiarne is more invested in the evolution of barcodes than you might think. And with Marcel’s deep passion for harnessing GS1’s power to drive efficiency and innovation in the supply chain, this conversation is a must-listen.

If you’re a supplier or seller of physical products—or if they’re part of your supply chain—you won’t want to miss this!

GS1 Australia |  How the humble barcode could unlock complete traceability in the supply chain

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/2fb3740d-3436-44af-8cc0-a91900716aa5/clips/9de2d4f1-ff12-4a4d-afc2-b2aa0066e47e/transcript

Most of us grew up being told cutting down trees is bad.

But what if the story is far more complex and in Australia’s case, completely misunderstood?

In this episode, Kiarne Treacy sits down with Matt De Jongh, Sustainability Manager at Responsible Wood, Director at Forestry Australia, and a registered forestry professional with more than 25 years in the sector.

Matt unpacks what sustainable forestry actually looks like in Australia, and why certified forests, young regrowth, Indigenous fire management and strict regulation all play a critical role in climate mitigation.

He explains how forest certification works, how chain of custody tracking traces wood from forest to shelf, and why Australia has some of the world’s most stringent forestry laws. You’ll also hear surprising facts about carbon storage in timber, misconceptions about paper use, why young forests absorb more carbon than old ones and why only 10% of the world’s forests are certified.

From the Tiwi Islands’ Indigenous-owned certified forest to the challenges of illegal logging, international regulations and Australia’s growing reliance on imported timber, this conversation reframes almost everything you thought you knew about forestry, climate and circularity.

You’ll hear and learn:
How chain of custody protects product integrity from forest to store shelf.
 Why certified forestry is not deforestation, and how certification was created to halt deforestation globally.
How Australia became one of the most forested countries in the world.
Why young, regrowing forests absorb more carbon than old ones, and what this means for climate mitigation.
Why paper guilt is misplaced, and why using certified timber and paper can actually support forest regeneration and carbon storage.
How wood stores carbon for the life of the product, and why architects love building with timber for wellbeing and emissions reasons

 

This episode is a must-listen for ESG leaders, procurement teams, packaging and circularity specialists, sustainability managers, architects, designers, regulators and anyone who wants a science-based explanation of forestry beyond the noise of social media.

Cutting down trees is a good thing... Wait what? | Responsible Wood’s Matt de Jongh

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/2fb3740d-3436-44af-8cc0-a91900716aa5/clips/e0dcca35-7707-4aae-9af7-b3b40056367b/transcript

What happens when a 120-year-old company bakes in sustainability for the next hundred years?

In this episode of the Sustainable Transformation Podcast, Kiarne Treacy sits down with Steve Plarre, CEO and Director of Plarre Foods, home to the Aussie icon Ferguson Plarre’s Bakehouses.

With a history dating back to 1901, the business has survived two world wars, the Great Depression, two pandemics, and fed tens of millions of Australians (including the Queen and the President of the United States). But today’s story is about something different: how a family bakery became a quiet sustainability innovator long before most of the industry caught up. 

Steve shares how being a multi-generational family business completely reshapes decision-making, because every choice today affects the children and grandchildren who may one day take the reins. That long view has led Ferguson Plarre to rethink energy, waste, supply chains, plant-based innovation and even the way pies are made.

You’ll hear and learn:
How a 120-year family bakery approaches sustainability with a “next 50–100 years” mindset
Why waste was always about dollars… and why it’s now also environmental responsibility
How heat recovery works in a bakery (and why it’s so ahead of its time)
What customers actually care about in a pie shop and why sustainability still matters
The surprising process behind their plant-based pies (and the taste test tradies didn’t see coming)
Why green-hushing is hurting progress and why businesses need to tell their sustainability stories

 

They did all of this while keeping the beloved classics that defined generations. From refrigerant motors that heat water for free, to vegan sausage rolls that fooled tradies on a construction site, this conversation reveals how sustainability shows up when curiosity, commercial reality and a century-long legacy meet.

This episode is a must-listen for all Aussies, business owners, food manufacturers, sustainability leads and anyone curious about what true long-term thinking looks like inside a beloved Australian brand.

What a 120-year-old bakery can teach us about sustainability | Ferguson Plarre’s Steve Plarre

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/2fb3740d-3436-44af-8cc0-a91900716aa5/clips/ee340710-e9fd-4742-a5cd-b3ad00ad2ab4/transcript

What if travel could restore the places we visit instead of harming them?

In this episode of The Sustainable Transformation Podcast, Kiarne Treacy sits down with Sara King, General Manager of Purpose at Intrepid Travel, one of the world’s largest B Corp travel companies and a global leader in responsible tourism. 

Sara shares what “responsible travel” actually looks like on the ground, from plastic-free Machu Picchu treks and Everest waste clean-ups to women-run rickshaw collectives in India and decarbonisation programs supporting thousands of small suppliers around the world.

She also unpacks the realities of leading sustainability at scale in a business with 10,000 suppliers and 95% of emissions sitting in Scope 3, and why Intrepid swapped carbon offsets for a supplier-focused decarbonisation fund years before the rest of the industry.

You’ll hear and learn:
Why responsible tourism is much more than emissions, and why Intrepid treats travel as a lever for economic development
How a team in Peru created eco-bricks from waste collected on the Machu Picchu trek
Why travellers in Nepal now help remove waste on the Everest route (and why they love it)
How immersive women’s expeditions in India offer a window into local life and support social enterprise
How Intrepid manages emissions across 10,000 suppliers and 900 trips
Why they replaced carbon offsets with a decarbonisation fund supporting small operators
What COVID taught Intrepid about resilience, regeneration and the delicate balance of overtourism 

This episode is a must-listen for sustainability leaders, tourism professionals, global development practitioners, and anyone curious about how travel can become a force for regeneration, not extraction.

 

MENTIONS:
Intrepid
B Corp Certification by B Lab Australia and New Zealand
