Emily Ehlers - most commonly known as Eco with Em - is a strange hybrid of writer, illustrator and environmentalist.

 

Her quirky, solutions-focused environmental artworks have been virally shared and have been strongly linked to severe cases of hopefulness.

 

When she is not completing her degree in Sustainable Development & International Aid she is working with clients including National Geographic and Sodastream. Her art-ivism was also the subject of a Channel 7 feature called Rough Cuts.  

 

She is based in Western Australian with her husband, two kids and the largest pile of laundry in the Southern Hemisphere.
