Dear Kim and family,
My condolencies from the UK.
My my - where to start with Warren - apart from saying he had a massive impact on my career and outlook. Arriving in NZ in 1993 as a fresh faced eco-bunny he bought me under his wing and we set up ZWNZ Trust in 1994 - well he did and I tagged along...!
4 years of working with WS I learnt so much and he, along with Gerry G, had a huge impact on my direction of travel in life.
The world as it is now needs many more Warren's and I am so pleased that I could call him my friend.
Love to all.

I met Warren in the US almost 25 years ago at a conference and was so inspired by his vision for a Zero Waste New Zealand that I remembered his name, face, and initiative all these years. My 22 year old son is heading to NZ in January and I thought I´d look up Warren to connect the two....I´m so sorry to learn of his passing and wanted to share the long ripple of his influence. My condolences to his family.

I am so thankful I got to spend time with Warren, my cousin-in-law, when I visited New Zealand in the beautiful summer of 2016. I know his loving and inspiring enthusiasm for his projects and his people will filter down to many in the world and he will be missed, but always present.

I am so saddened to hear of Warren's passing. I knew him from the international world of campaigning; specifically on container deposit systems. We met several times in different countries and he was always supportive, insightful and helpful with our campaign in the UK. If I have learnt one thing from my 30 years of working, it's that we need more Warren Snows in the world. I am sending my condolences to his family, friends and colleagues.

I'll be forever grateful for everything Warren taught me. He had an awesome vision for how the world could be, and an incredible knack at getting people on board with that vision - myself included.

Much love to Kim, Amanda, Jackie and the whole family, and all who called Warren a friend.

To Warrens whanau, I only worked with him briefly but Warren was the kindest warmest person. I felt like I was on his team from the moment we started talking. I send condolences to you all, but I will pick up his mantel and keep pushing his wonderful energy out into the worlds as much as I can. Go well. Sending prayers of comfort for you all. Laurie Foon
