As a tea company relying on the goodness of nature, we cannot ignore the impact human-induced climate change has on each of us, the environment, business and the economy. Informed action is urgent. That is why we have partnered with Sri Lanka Climate Summit where people can come together to learn, unlearn and take urgent action for a climate resilient future for our country.

Day 0 of the Sustain-Able Climate Action Challenge begins, kicking off six weeks of learning, crafting, testing, and competing. For the nine competitors, it's a race against time to perfect their sustainable innovations for a plastic-free world. This unique experience connects these school and university students with mentors and like-minded peers, all passionate about a sustainable future. The launch featured speeches from the program organisers - The European Union and Genesis Sri Lanka - Dilmah Centre for A Sustainable Future, encouraging words from mentors, and pitches from the young competitors. #Dilmah #DilmahConservation #EuinSriLanka #LetsGoGreen #PlasticFree #Recycle #Reduce #Replace #Innovation #Youth #ClimateAction

It’s no secret that our resplendent isle provides a haven for vegans worldwide. That’s why plant-based culinary wiz Simon Toohey, former MasterChef Australia  Finalist, on his quest for lost ingredients with Dilmah Conservation, paid a visit to a 100% plant-based factory in Sri Lanka where Sahan Bakmiwewa and his wife create vegan delicacies with local underutilized ingredients such as young jackfruit (polos). Believe us when we tell you, a heavenly polos curry is a Sri Lankan's heart and soul. Toohey’s journey was a lead-up to the launch of Genesis: The Dilmah Centre for a Sustainable Future, a two-pronged facility that acts as an incubator for agripreneurs to innovate and reach international shores with their products and as a centre of excellence for Nature-based Solutions. . . . . . #SimonToohey #MasterChef #Sustainability #PlantLove #Entrepreneur #Genesis #EntrepreneurLife #Dilmah #DilmahConservation #GLX #LostIngredientsLab Dilmah Tea

Plant-based chef and sunny personality Simon Toohey (perhaps a familiar face from Masterchef Australia) visits a permaculture haven in Rambukkana, Sri Lanka with Dilmah Conservation! He experienced the goodness of lost local ingredients such as our Velvet Beans, Local Olives, Soursop & ofcourse didn’t forget to treat himself to a dish of deliciously boiled Cassava and fiery Bird Eye Chilli (Kochchi) sambol!  Perhaps that’s what got him starry-eyed! Toohey’s journey was a lead-up to the launch of Genesis: The Dilmah Centre for a Sustainable Future, a two-pronged facility that acts as an incubator for agripreneurs to innovate and reach international shores with their products and as a centre of excellence for Nature-based Solutions. . . . . . #SimonToohey #MasterChef #Sustainability #PlantLove #Empowement #Entrepreneur #EntrepreneurLife #Dilmah #DilmahConservation #GLX #LostIngredientsLab

Denis Chaibi, now the former EU Ambassador to Sri Lanka and the Maldives shared an interesting thought about Sri Lanka at the launch of Genesis: Dilmah Centre for A Sustainable Future earlier this year. He spoke on the unharnessed potential of Sri Lanka to go climate neutral, in other words, reduce our emissions through climate action. Did you know that Dilmah is aligning its manufacturing processes to meet Science-based Targets and achieve zero emissions by the year 2030? #Dilmah #DilmahConservation #EU #SriLanka #ClimateNeutral #Genesis
