About

Christina Robert 

My career began in the film business where I worked as a Creative Affairs Executive; developing stories for the screen. I became a journalist following the birth of my second child.  I had always been interested in protecting our environment, but becoming a mother gave me the motivation I needed to take action.  After organising a few conferences on the subject,  I was asked to create a green column for a new, Condé Nast title, Easy Living Magazine.  The column ran for five years, first as the Accidental Ecologist, then as Green Scene. You will find some of those pieces on this website under Archives. In 2008 I was honoured as a Columnist of The Year.  Around the same time I was witnessing the impact of the Al Gore documentary, An Inconvenient Truth. So in 2009 I founded Bright Green Pictures to utilise top creative to help move some of the  issues along. Our content has had 100% success rate with regard to the campaigns it has taken on. For example, our film, A Time Comes, about the Kingsnorth Six, directed by Nick Broomfield was featured in a six page spread in the Observer and was one of the tools that helped bring an end to coal expansion in the UK.  

After Easy Living, I began writing lifestyle pieces for The Sunday Times' Style Magazine, Conde Nast Traveller, Red Magazine, the Huffington Post and others.  You can read the digital pieces in Articles.  Some of the print pieces can be found in Archives. 

A few years ago, I was approached by a fiction editor who suggested I write a "green Sex in The City".  Not many people understand that one, but fortunately it made perfect sense to me. My first novel, The Rewilding of Vivienne Miller has just been completed. My second, The Retreat, is currently under construction.

Hobbies include: dancing, dancing and dancing
