@KateRaworth The most encouraging thread I’ve read this year.

[Kate Raworth @KateRaworth]

Last December I was invited to present Doughnut Economics to the Biden Treasury Transition Team. Here are some of the key ideas I shared with them....(1/n)

The idea that every industry should grow, every year, regardless of whether or not we actually need it, is an irrational and ecologically incoherent way to run an economy.

If you’re in or around the island of #Shapinsay in the next while, keep your eyes peeled for the world’s first hydrogen-fuelled ferry, which is set to begin further sea trials. Once it has been fully tested, we could see more #lowcarbon ferry routes being established 🙌🏼 @EMEC_Ltd

This is powerful. A big majority of Europeans want the EU to reach zero emissions by 2030, not 2050. Let this silence those who claim that ambitious climate action is politically infeasible. https://t.co/5MBTmhtuUP

"The donut shows that it is not just about the here and now, but also about there and later - because it is also about the consequences that our way of life has for people elsewhere & future generations." Love this quote from the Vice Mayor of Amsterdam.

The 'Westküste 100' project models a regional hydrogen economy on an industrial scale. The conditions on Northern Germany's west coast are ideal for this: A strong wind energy region meets innovative companies...
