Ellen MacArthur: Sailing around the world taught me sustainability

Help

Dame Ellen MacArthur says she learnt about sustainability from her experiences sailing around the world.

She told Colin Murray on the BBC Radio 5 live Gabby Logan programme: "Having collected everything I would need for my survival for two and a half months and having to manage it...I had a real idea of the notion of finite."

MacArthur has set up an educational foundation to promote sustainability.

Listen to the Gabby Logan show Monday to Friday at 1200 BST on BBC Radio 5 live.
