“What wakes me up every day? Feeling a great urgency and responsibility to make the world a better place for all of our children and future generations.”
Author, Environmental Leader, Business Pioneer, Mother
For 30 years, I’ve dedicated myself to learning all I can about how to best care for our wild, living planet. The more I’ve discovered over the years, the more I realize how our health and actions are intimately intertwined with the Earth. This has led me to want to do everything in my power to understand and champion sustainable values, from what we wear, to how we teach our children, to the food we eat. This has transformed into my new latest endeavor: Inside Out LLC. My new wayfinding collective aims to deliver revolutionary solutions to the world’s most urgent challenges. As a purpose-driven company, Inside Out (IO) is committed to designing ecologically responsible and ethical solutions across six key sectors. Embracing the mantra “Business for the Environment,” IO integrates pioneering science, technology, and education to balance commercial success with meaningful environmental and social impact. We’re setting a bold new standard where profit aligns with purpose, and innovation drives restoration. Through collaboration, science, and creativity, we’re building solutions that honor our responsibility to the generations we will never meet. This is the beginning of a journey to turn challenges into opportunities and leave a legacy of positive impact.
I’m particularly passionate — okay some might say obsessed! — with plant-based foods as a solution for climate change. It started when MUSE Global School became the first school in the country to serve a 100% plant-based lunch program! Then I wrote the book, The OMD Plan, and founded the OMD movement to inspire and support people eating at least one plant-based meal a day. Because my mission is to ensure that all children have a thriving planet to live on, OMD also works to equitably increase access to plant-based food at schools, restaurants and businesses — one bite, one meal, one menu at a time.
The OMD Plan
Change the World by Changing One Meal a Day.
In The OMD Plan, Suzy explains how we can live healthier and heal the planet, starting with swapping out at least one meat and dairy-based meal to one plant-based meal a day. Initiated at MUSE Global School, the first plant-based school in the country, The OMD Plan makes it possible for anyone to reverse climate change while embracing a healthier lifestyle — supported by the latest nutrition research and environmental science. This one simple step helps you lose weight, reverse chronic health concerns, improve overall well being, and slash your environmental “foodprint” in half. Featuring over 50 delicious recipes and complete with inspiring success stories, shopping lists and meal plans, The OMD Plan is an all-in-one resource for anyone who wants to take care of their body and our beautiful plant at the same time, without giving up the foods they love and enjoy. With a foreword by Dr. Dean Ornish.

MUSE is the first school (ECE-12th grade) in the United States to be 100% solar powered, zero waste, and with a 100% organic, plant-based lunch program. Based on MUSE’s values and curriculum, MUSE Global was launched in 2018 to franchise the school worldwide.

Founded in 2006, MUSE Global School is located in Calabasas, California offering Early Childhood Education through 12th grade in-person learning. This innovative, holistic, private school was created with the mission to inspire and prepare young people to live consciously with themselves, one another, and the planet.
The OMD Movement is ambitious–and that’s because we believe in (and desperately need) big, exciting change. For the OMD Movement, that opportunity for change is at the intersection of food, health and the environment. From heart disease to climate change, there’s no shortage of research and science that shows us how devastating meat and dairy is for our bodies and the Earth. The OMD Movement is about resourcing individuals — with tools, encouragement and real talk — to migrate to climate-friendly, plant-based diets. The OMD Movement is also about system change — about expanding access and making a great case for schools, businesses, restaurants and communities to move towards more plant-based options. Take our OMD Pledge, download our healthy school lunch or restaurant toolkits, check out our pilot program in North Carolina, or peruse our blogs for recipes, tips, stories of food justice movers and shakers, health advice and more—all at the OMD website.
Plant Power Task Force (PPTF) is focused on showing the impact of animal agriculture on climate change and the environment. Founded in 2014 by Suzy Amis Cameron and James Cameron in partnership with the Craig and Susan McCaw Foundation, PPTF supported the first multi-country studies on global diets and climate change by the independent U.K.-based think tank, Chatham House: Livestock—Climate Change’s Forgotten Sector and Changing Climate, Changing Diets. PPTF also spearheaded the My Plate, My Planet initiative, representing over 200 leading environmental and health organizations, in support of the historic opportunity to link food and the environment in the 2015 U.S. Dietary Guidelines. Currently, Plant Power Task Force is supporting media and communications work to increase awareness on the impact of global meat consumption and promote plant-based food solutions to climate change. The Plant Power Task Force media library will be launched in Fall 2018.
Documentaries
Suzy is the Executive Producer of documentary films that raise awareness about the environmental challenges our world is facing. By making conscious choices in what we eat, wear, and buy, we can drive meaningful progress in addressing climate change—while also enhancing our health and well-being. These individual actions have the potential to create lasting change, not only for our generation but for many to come.
Let Them Be Naked is an audacious exploration into the presence of toxic and often harmful chemicals in the fabrics and materials used in our everyday clothing. Since his mother’s death from breast cancer, designer and activist Jeff Garner has spearheaded a campaign to uncover the health implications of exposure to these chemicals and the urgent need for more ethical production of garments. His advocacy has created relationships with research organizations and innovators across the globe, all leading the conversation surrounding unregulated toxins in the fashion industry.
By partnering with these passionate revolutionaries, Jeff reimagines the development and production of everyday garments to inspire a new era of conscious and responsible fashion that prioritizes the health and wellbeing of people and the planet.

A young activist goes deep into dairy land where he takes on the giants of New Zealand’s most powerful industry, and reveals how the sacred cash-cow industry has been milked dry. His journey exposes not only the sustainability crisis and the dangerous denial of impending agricultural disruption, but also what New Zealand and other countries can do to change their fate.

We’ve been talking about sustainable fashion for years, yet little has changed. Let’s start by understanding what sustainability really means for the textile industry. “Junk” tells the stories and shows the images of the people and ecosystems directly affected by the negative impact of fast fashion.
It’s not just a project to raise awareness but also a narrative to give all of us the certainty that changing things is still possible, and we all have a role to play.
“Junk” unfolds in six episodes, each dedicated to a different issue caused by fast fashion, filmed in six different countries: in Chile and Ghana, the textile dumps of the world; in Indonesia, we discover how the production of artificial fibers is annihilating the country’s biodiversity. In Bangladesh, we delve into the working conditions. In India, we explore how we’ve managed to change millennia of cotton culture. And finally, in Italy, because we have problems here too, they are just sometimes less visible than others.
We all have full closets of problematic clothes, with “Junk” we want to give a more honest and concrete meaning to the word “sustainability” to understand, all together, how to challenge the status quo of the fashion system.
