Timothy Tan, also known as @eco.timmy on Instagram, is an “environMAN” and earth advocate based in Singapore. Through running his platform and spearheading other sustainable initiatives in his community, he hopes to debunk the myths that climate change is a problem for women to solve and that men should care less about the environment. 

In this episode, we discuss toxic masculinity as a barrier to sustainability, what it’s like thrifting as a man, coping with eco-anxiety, and interfaith environmentalism.
