In this post I tackle the question of what needs to be done to normalise planetary health considerations in society, and by implication, how we can each become co-creators of planetary health.
In this post I explore what it means to transition from a degenerative extractive economy to a regenerative economy. In consideration thereof, I provide a definition of a regenerative economy. This serves as a working platform from which we can explore what it is about our current economy that we wish to keep, pay homage to, cultivate, and rediscover. In the latter part of the post I provide some suggestions regarding changes that we might make to our current financial system. I close the post presenting 10 suggested modifications to the global financial architecture suggested by The Beyond Bretton Woods Initiative.
In this post, I explore how we change the narrative around consumption, what this would look like, and whose responsibility it is.
In this post I discuss my thoughts on the hypothetical question “If we were to consider ourselves as co-creators of planetary health rather than as consumers of planetary resources, would our preoccupation with consumption change?
Following on from Part 1, in Part 2 of ‘What is a regenerative business’ I consider how core functional areas need to add regenerative value if a business is to be regenerative. Specifically I focus on regenerative marketing, regenerative HR and regenerative accounting.
In this post I explore more closely the relationship between externalised product costs, and both degenerative and regenerative market situations.
To address today’s most critical planetary challenges, in this post I explore whether the absence of degeneration alone in our Earth systems is sufficient or whether we need the presence of regeneration?
In Part 2 of the post on regenerative consumption, I pick up from where I left off in Part 1, which was with the realisation that regenerative consumption is perhaps not such an oxymoron after-all.
In part one of this post, I present the idea of regenerative consumption, and moreover, I explore the possibility that it is not the oxymoron that many might consider it to be.
In this post I explore the concept of a regenerative economy and highlight why it is crucial for regenerative businesses.
