"Markets are one engine that transfer money in to commodities. But other engines exist such as #culture and law. These 'engines of change' may never attract a price but do more work and for longer and are the most precious of capitals." Peter Tunjic

"If unchallenged, the capital metaphor will become fully absorbed into the sustainability discourse as a fact rather than a poor analogy locating attempts to find a solution to sustainability in the same concept that is a primary cause of planetary abuse" ondirectorship.com/ondirectorship…

It's been a long time in the making 🥲

“Plants know how to make food and medicine from light and water, and then they give it away.” - Robin Wall Kimmerer

We can learn from the great achievements of Martin Luther King Jr. to recognize that non-violence is the best long-term approach to redressing injustice. If the twentieth century was a century of violence, let us make the twenty-first a century of dialogue.

“beginning in the mid-1800s, a series of investments in human development infrastructures, created some of the most equitable transitions and societies today.” — Dark Matter provocations.darkmatterlabs.org/climate-city-c…

“If the world is complex, then acting congruently with that complexity can be simpler than trying to control a machine that does not exist.” Jean Boulton, Author of Embracing #Complexity : Strategic Perspectives for an Age of Turbulence

Exploring #systemschange #leadership with Health System practitioners today - and talking about how we need to listen and look at the inner feelings as part of the change

I'm loving all the quotes from great heartful people through the ages. Good ideas and what works never grows old or out of value.

This is big and bleak news. The planetary boundary for chemical pollution (aka 'novel entities') has been quantified for the first time - and it's now clear that humanity is massively transgressing levels that are safe for life on Earth. Plastics! Read on. theguardian.com/environment/20…

“There has been 50X increase in the production of chemicals since 1950 and this is projected to triple again by 2050. The pace that societies are producing and releasing new chemicals into the environment is not consistent with staying within a safe operating space for humanity.”
