Sam Farah Founder

Volta Art director Sam has more than a decade’s experience creating web and advertising design for clients including Costa Coffee, Diageo, Stella Artois and Manchester United. He’s also a professional adventurer, overlander and motivational speaker, and presenter on Amazon Prime’s Adventure Bike TV.

The concept for Volta Future Positive.com came from Sam’s belief that the apocalyptic approach to covering climate change issues taken by the media worldwide makes people feel like they can’t make a difference. He wants people to know that they aren’t powerless in the face of climate change because little changes can make a big difference if adopted by enough people.
