According to The Earthshot Prize motto, URGENCY+OPTIMISM = ACTION, Change is not happening fast enough or at the scale we need. Despite the challenges of high levels of climate anxiety and political interventions occurring too slowly, we remain optimists, while we continue finding solutions within our own company and beyond. Last week, at London Climate Action Week, we joined with other likeminded individuals and companies to share innovative approaches and find genuine new avenues for a more regenerative planet while repairing the environment. Our Founder and Piñatex Inventor, Dr Carmen Hijosa, was invited by The Earthshot Prize and its partner, Bloomberg Philanthropies, to take part in a series of events alongside a select group of innovators, experts and business leaders, discussing innovations that can set the planet on a healthier path. “The Earth is at a tipping point. We face a stark choice: either we continue as we are and irreparably damage our planet, or we remember our unique power as humans and our continual ability to lead, innovate and problem-solve. People can achieve great things. The next ten years present us with one of our greatest tests – a decade of action to repair the Earth.” - HRH Prince William, Founder and President of The Earthshot Prize

Director and Co-Founder at Existential Intelligence Energy Solutions Pte. Ltd. ‘धर्मो रक्षति रक्षितः’: ‘To Know’ ‘To Will’ ‘To Dare’ ‘To Be Silent’—- ‘The Strategist’ | Thought Leader | CEO Coaching & Mentor | Speaker |
Invest in Our Planet. The wealth of the nation is its air, water, soil, forests, minerals, rivers, lakes, oceans, scenic beauty, wildlife habitats and biodiversity… that’s all there is. That’s the whole economy. That’s where all the economic activity and jobs come from. These biological systems are the sustaining wealth of the world. The Mother Earth is our Goddess. As we give respect, care, love and Honor to our own Mother, Let us resolve to give the care, respect, love and Honor to the Mother Earth and preserve. Unlike previous economic revolutions, this time there are two additional imperatives: saving humanity from the climate crisis and building green economies in every country so that everyone benefits from this green revolution. This can only be done if we invest in our planet’s future together. Governments, businesses, and citizens are essential in harnessing the revolutionary progress needed to save humanity from the climate crisis. Overcoming climate change is within reach if we work together to commit to action and invest in our planet and our collective future. * Businesses, inventors, investors, and financial markets must drive value for their institutions and society through green innovation and practices. Like other economic revolutions, the private sector has the power to drive the most significant change, with both the necessary scale and speed. * Governments must incentivize their citizens, businesses, and institutions to create and innovate, advancing the public’s interests and creating the framework for an equitable and sustainable global economic system. Ambitious action on green energy generates increased energy security at a time where that has never been more important, while also simultaneously creating the positive environmental outcomes needed to tackle the climate crisis. * Individual citizens must push for sustainable solutions across the board as voters and consumers. Climate change mitigation, restoration, and adaption require the collective will and voice of the people to make the change the planet needs. Have a wonderful Mother Earth Day today and every day. 🙏🏽🙏🏽 #Earthday

Impact catalyst connecting leaders and teams for inspired, bold action on climate & nature through @DoGoodFaster @Unreasonable @DOLectures @TYFAdventure Founder. Pioneer @VivoBarefoot.
Time to Reach // Over four days of Planet Assemblies I hosted at Hay Festival, groups of strangers shared ideas, connections and action around circular economy, food, transport and health. In just a couple of hours, the quality of insights and action was reaffirming and grew hope for what's possible when we release communities' ability to reach out and collaborate to co-design the better futures we desperately need. I chatted with Prof Sir David King in the Green Room, asking him about the highest priority for inspiring young people to take action in this space. His sure answer was connection to nature. The exciting development of BiRD Lab - the Biomimicry & Regenerative Design Lab at Green School Bali with Benjamin Freud, Ph.D. Charlotte Hankin Denise DeLuca Frank Burridge and Dr Kevin House, FCCT, FRSA is driving the creation of new design approaches that help learners of all ages ask better questions of each other, non-human and unborn generations about the ambition we need to set for our reach, and find ways of learning from nature to shape the actions and relationships that can drive transformation. We must reach out more confidently, and with more stamina than ever before, and connect our voices, spirit and energy to drive change at the startling and radical scale that's needed. #climate #biodiversity #regeneration #legacy
Humanity’s survival is still within our grasp – just. But only if we take these radical steps | David King

🌍 Reflecting on 2023: Hope in the Face of Challenge 🌊 As we approach the end of the year, it's crucial to acknowledge the challenges our planet faces and the urgent need for collective action. Yet, amidst the sobering reality of climate change, it's equally important to embrace hope – the driving force that empowers us to make a positive impact. 🌊 I am excited to share a series of stories that exemplify the resilience of our oceans and the incredible efforts being made to restore and protect them. These are a testament to the power of hope and the impact it can have on our environment. 📖 Dive into these Stories of Ocean Hope - https://lnkd.in/eGhPYXgy Each tale underscores the fact that, even in the face of daunting climate challenges, individuals, organizations, and communities are working tirelessly to preserve our oceans and create a sustainable future. From innovative approaches to community-driven initiatives, these stories remind us that hope is not just an abstract concept but a tangible force driving positive change. 🌱 What can we learn from these stories? 1. **Collective Action Matters:**The power of many is greater than the sum of its parts. When we join forces, we can achieve remarkable feats. 2. **Innovation Drives Progress:** From cutting-edge technologies to grassroots innovations, embracing new ideas is key to overcoming environmental challenges. 3. **Local Initiatives Have Global Impact:** Change often starts at the local level, and the impact can ripple across the globe. Working with community-driven projects is vital. 4. **Storytelling is a Catalyst:** The more we understand our environment, the better equipped we are to protect it. Storytelling and awareness initiatives play a crucial role in fostering a sense of shared of responsibility. Let's carry the spirit of hope into the new year. Together, we can continue to make strides towards a more sustainable and resilient future. 🌏💙 #ClimateHope #OceanConservation #NewYearReflections https://lnkd.in/eGhPYXgy

Cultivating Systems Change for Sustainability | Regenerative Agriculture & Food Systems | Sustainability Strategist
💡Been waiting patiently for this to be published! Why and how should companies integrate the social and environmental sustainability agendas? Such a critical piece of work from my brilliant colleagues Charlie Thorneycroft, Neil Walker, James Payne, Gemma Bridgman, Raphael Lachiver, and Tanya Grueneberger, in partnership with Mars and IDH 📚"Integrating Social and Environmental Sustainability: A practical playbook to drive impact and unlock business benefit" 🔸As our civilization confronts an unprecedented polycrisis, the need for more effective action from the private sector to the compounding environmental and social challenges we face has never been clearer. 🔹However, developments in regulation and reporting frameworks can encourage carbon tunnel-vision and reinforce the artificial separation between social and environmental agendas. 🔸Despite this, leading businesses are increasingly seeking to design more effective interventions that address multiple related issues simultaneously, rather than misguidedly seeking to address these interconnected issues via piecemeal interventions targeting just one issue at a time. 🔹This report outlines a clear business case for greater resilience, productivity and growth in companies that adopt this more effective integrated approach to social and environmental challenges and impacts. 📈 It lays out six key recommendations to help organisations move from conventional strategies to an integrated and more effective method. 🌏Click here to access the playbook: https://lnkd.in/ej94EYA6 #Social #Environmental #ESG #Business #Sustainability
Our planetary systems are in crisis. For lasting change, we cannot continue to address environmental and social issues in isolation. Addressing planetary challenges requires integrated solutions. Forum for the Future, Mars, and IDH have published a practical playbook, outlining six key recommendations for businesses to drive impact and transformational change.

Proud to be a part of the team behind this latest report from Forum for the Future, in partnership with Mars and IDH. Arguments for eliminating social inequalities tend to appeal to moral sentiments. While we see these arguments as entirely valid, they overlook the fact that reducing inequality is both a moral and pragmatic necessity, if we are to effectively address the environmental challenges we face. It is our view that the fundamental purpose of business should be to help solve these challenges, and that businesses have an essential and positive role to play. However, in order to play that role, businesses need a clear rationale of the commercial benefits to enable their contribution. The report sets out the business case for taking an integrated approach to business, social and environmental agendas, outlining the ways in which this can unlock commercial benefits when compared to treating these agendas as isolated issues. Stay tuned for further guidance on how to implement these recommendations in practice. https://lnkd.in/eRMvP27q
