More precisely, it starts in just under an hour, when John Fullerton, founder and president of the Capital Institute, kicks off a new course on regenerative economics.
Harking back to a couple of posts ago, you may recall I shared a chart that compared the path of actual GHG emissions — and the cuts necessary to reach net zero by 2050 — against a hypothetical path, as if we’d all paid attention in class when The Limits to Growth was published in 1972. How fitting, then, that today’s kick-off should coincide with the 50th anniversary of that seminal report.
Learning in the company of John, Daniel Christian Wahl, John Elkington, Paul Hawken, Janine Benyus and other luminaries — not to mention the fantastically diverse, passionate and knowledgeable group of peers in this first cohort — looks set to be a really amazing experience.
I can’t tell you how much I’m looking forward to developing a much deeper understanding of a different way of seeing and being — one rooted in universal principles of systemic health, self-organization, self-renewal and regenerative vitality.
