Watch Zion's TEDx talk on stargazing.
Zion is a passionate science advocate and environmental writer who wants to change the world for the better.
Zion is the author of the evidence-based book The Ultimate Guide to Green Parenting, the nature poetry book Only a Moment, and the forthcoming Zero Waste Kids with Rob Greenfield. She has been called “Britain’s greenest mother” by The Daily Telegraph and “an eco-pragmatist, happily heavy on science” by The Guardian. Zion is an astronomer and her TEDx talk, “Don’t Forget to Look Up,” is on the importance of stargazing.
Zion founded The Hourglass newspaper, the first climate reporting newspaper in the UK. Hourglass reached a print run of 180k copies that were distributed across the UK by a network of volunteers. As Editor in Chief Zion managed a team of Hourglass staff and coordinated interviews with leading figures for the newspaper including Margaret Atwood, Amanda Palmer, Neil Gaiman, Christiana Figueres, Ray Mears, Michael Eavis, and Maxine Peake.
A review of Hourglass in The Guardian concluded: "The newspaper is worth a look, striking that all-important balance between horror and optimism. Come on, it’s important, buy a copy – except you don’t have to, it’s free!"
Zion has been an environmental journalist for many years. She was the Co-Editor of JUNO magazine, and has written for The Metro, The Telegraph, City AM, BBC Wildlife Magazine, Resurgence magazine, The Ecologist and many other publications. Speaking about environmental issues, Zion has also appeared on BBC Politics Live, Good Morning Britain, Sky News Australia, and has been interviewed by Yasha Mounk, Ed Milliband, Isabelle Boemeke, Syed Kamall and numerous others for their podcasts and shows. A full list of media appearances is available in the Media section of the website.
Zion has an MSc in Science Communication from The University of the West of England (UWE) and lives in Devon, UK, with her two children.
'Zion Lights has turned the cliched hippy dippy image of green mama mantras on its head and instead rammed her brilliant book with heaps of common sense and evidence-based facts' - Gurgle magazine
