Thanks for stopping by. Take a seat and I’ll pop the kettle on.
My name is Matthew Devitt and I’m 40 years old. I grew up in Australia and moved to Germany in 2017. I live right in the centre of Nuremberg, a very historic and captivating city. There are lots of magnificent old buildings, beautiful green spaces, and a neverending supply of the world’s best beer.
Life is good.
Before I was an eco-copywriter, I worked in solar energy for about ten years. I started as a sales consultant and went on to run my own company, as well as an eCommerce store that specialised in sustainable products.
When I moved to Germany, I was craving more freedom in my work (I’m typing this in a cafe in a small town in the Austrian Alps; not bad), but I also wanted to speak to a larger audience of like-minded people.
Copywriting has allowed me to achieve these goals and promote sustainability on a much broader scale.
Through my writing, I aim to pose thought-provoking ideas, encourage new ways of thinking, and, most importantly, motivate people to make a difference.
My areas of writing expertise include, but are not limited to:
Renewable energy: wind and solar power, and battery systems such as the Tesla Powerwall.
Sustainability: recycling, the circular economy, and all the different ways we can help the environment.
Technology: electric vehicles, software, robotics, artificial intelligence, automation, self-driving cars, and other technologies shaping our everyday lives.
I’m also an experienced writer and editor of corporate sustainability (ESG) reports. My services include:
Writing complete sustainability reports
Proofreading and editing existing draft reports
Editing and re-writing reports in native English (that have been written in non-native English)
