Today life is in service to finance.
What would it mean to put finance in service to life?

Here's my brilliant colleague @ErinchSahan with a 20min lowdown, told through the lens of #doughnuteconomics @ChangeNOW_world. Check it out: https://t.co/AZ8pzlAjfW @DoughnutEcon

I recently spoke to a room of 1200+ people on the role of activism.

This speech took me in a direction I didn't expect. It felt nerve-wracking yet important to expose what I consider to be the biggest climate cover-up in history...

Out today: this @guardian article on putting Doughnut Economics into action. It's not easy to be written about publicly - many thanks to @hettieveronica for her thoughtful research. https://t.co/CWd5pxRojg

It’s here! Today we're launching 'Communities: Let's Get Started', a go-to guide for using #DoughnutEconomics in your community.

Let's hope this is a turning point for the mainstreaming of #EcologicalEconomics ideas brewing for decades to promote wellbeing within planetary boundaries @EUparliament & beyond! Best of luck to them! @ISEEORG

Repeat after me: individual actions will not solve the climate crisis 🙅‍♀️

Narratives such as "technology will save us" and "it's up to individuals to change their habits" are just as insidious as outright climate denial.

We must keep our attention on where power lies... (1/2)

[Doughnut Economics Action Lab (DEAL) @DoughnutEcon]

Today we’re launching Cities & regions: let’s get started, a guide for anyone working alongside local or regional gov't who is inspired by #DoughnutEconomics and wants to better understand how to start putting them into practice in their own place. (1/4)

Here's a link to the whole conversation on #StartTheWeek @BBCRadio4 https://t.co/IZn88y5WLE 3/n

[Kate Raworth @KateRaworth]

Let's open up the black box of capitalism. I discussed what it means & what it does with @BernieSanders and @martinwolf_ on @BBCR4 last week. Here's how I defined it - how would you put it differently? 1/n

Maybe it's not really possible to "make" change in living systems, maybe the change makes itself.

Maybe it's better to think about making a space for systemic combining to re-combine.

Forced change seems to distort; perpetuating epistemics that disrupt vitality.

[Fionnuala @fionncoll]

@NoraBateson There is a space between the said and unsaid ( but could be said) where things are shaping and reforming, until they make thoughts, things that wait until there is a context where they can make sense, where it is possible to be shaped. A sea of imagination awaiting? Direction??

[Kate Raworth @KateRaworth]

If you want to start 2023 with eyes wide open then I recommend this packed & pithy paper by @NJHagens on economics for the future.

Humanity + energy + debt + growth addiction + planetary boundaries: guess what's coming.

Can we learn to bend not break? https://t.co/XOhjVBLGNB

[Kate Raworth @KateRaworth]

I'm delighted to see this quote featured in today's @nytimes international edition. It's time to teach 21st century economics to 21st century students and @DoughnutEcon we've got plans for 2023...join us.

[Roy Hobson @royhobson]

How could you put wildness into words without reducing and taming it? Rather don’t try it; rather hold space for the potential to continue wildly wild-ing. So too with change, offers Nora. Beautiful to savour the deepening exploration of aphanipoeisis in this paper.

[nora bateson @NoraBateson]

New Big Paper!!!

This piece is about another way to think about change by myself and a group of fantastic contributors.

This link is limited..

Ready-ing.

"Knowing what I do, there would be no future peace for me if I kept silent."

Rachel Carson's 'Silent Spring' was published on this day in 1962. The story of its making — one of humanity's greatest acts of courage in standing up for truth against power https://t.co/DRwh8xuzi8

There are other circular regenerative ways - they all involve curing the addiction of clinging to or aspiring to that driving seat. #onceyouknow #dontlookaway #onawarmingplanet

Your friendly reminder that this is a dumb way to call something an "economy"... 😉
