Questions for a sustainable world

Unless we ask the big questions, we won’t find the answers which meet the scale of the challenge we face.

Against a dark background – the limits of certainty

A sustainable future depends upon our ability to perceive the limits of certainty, and to embrace the uncertainty that has always been there.

Utility – the fundamental metric of social impact

Defining and delivering true social utility requires a fundamental perspective and approach to assessing the purpose of enterprise in the first place.

Show me the money! Sustainability and financial outperformance

There is plenty of evidence out there for sustainability and financial out performance, we must use such evidence to take us towards a brighter future.

All capitals are unequal, but some are more unequal than others

Multiple capitals seek to expand the notion of value beyond money, cost and price. How useful might they be?

Efficiency of use is a key aspect of sustainable energy, but quality may be more fundamental, how might we define it?

Discounting the discount rate…how can we value a sustainable future?

The discount rate makes a lot of sense but it also acts to restrict adequate investment in sustainable change. How might we compound future value?

What’s the point of capitalism?

Capitalism has no stated end-goal, no clear outcome or purpose, yet it dominates our planet. We need a little more from our operating system.

Valuing Natural Capital and Selling your Mother – the remix

Using money to put things on a level playing field makes sense, but only if the things we are comparing are actually comparable – natural capital is not.

Entropic Overhead – measuring the circular economy

Entropy applies without exception to all activities and processes. Is it the meta metric to measure and drive a circular economy?
