A new study demonstrates how remanufacturing within a circular economy delivers a wide range of benefits for society, the environment, for business and the economy – towards a new bottom line, based on shared wealth. For every €1 million of operating costs, the company delivers €11 million of benefits to people, planet, business & economy. Read more about the success of Norsk Ombruk’s approach – working in partnership with key players like Electrolux, Elkjøp and IKEA; together, they bend the value chain towards the circular economy.]]>

BLOOM and Earthshine have collaborated to present an objective, yet practical vision that positions Ontario’s craft beer industry to ride the global craft beer wave and achieve a sustainable 20% market share by the year 2025. Achieving this vision would generate a wide range of economic, social and environmental benefits for all stakeholders in the industry’s eco-system, including the support of Ontario government policies on climate change, GHG reduction and transitioning to a low carbon, circular economy. Includes: *Further details on the foundational research and analysis to prepare the Discussion Paper *Best practice examples of how Ontario and other craft breweries are integrating sustainability into their business models *A profile on what a ‘truly’ sustainable craft brewer would look like *A comprehensive list of recommendations, both at the craft brewer level, as well as an industry-wide level, to reach the 20 by 25 vision *A summary of key learning points]]>

Lecture delivered in support of the 'Leadership for Sustainability' Masters Degree Program at Malmö University on Feb 16th 2016. The notion of the learning organisation is considered in the context of sustainable development: how 'learning' becomes increasingly important in a VUCA landscape; how we can shift perspectives from risk to opportunity; exploring the need for a strategic radar; and testing how organisations are currently responding. Are we truly learning as organisations - are we learning fast enough? There are serious questions, but there are signs of new levels of learning emerging - as businesses seek to find purpose in meeting the challenges of our time.]]>
