GREEN ECONOMY CONFERENCE: Monday November 13, 9AM-4PM L.A. County Arboretum, https://lnkd.in/gVj4m8uN When we tell new stories about what is important and what is possible, and put people's wellbeing at the heart of the solutions, the seeds of transformative climate action will flourish. Green Economy Conference participants will discuss a new framework, 'one that serves people and planet, rather than people and planet serving the economy.' Engage with us as we discuss a new way to think about our economy and ways to level the playing field.

Been a while since an edition of #letstalkclimate so let's dive head first into something light - degrowth 🫠 (different from green growth). If that word makes you see 🔴, let me offer other words: post-growth, growth of a different kind. So why is degrowth a climate solution? It's an economic model that argues that since GDP is strongly tied to resource use, employing GDP growth as a measure of success will continue to push our resources beyond planetary boundaries. Beyond GDP though, degrowth is a mental model for how we approach the world. It challenges our definition of growth. Is economic growth (aka GDP) that favors a few, or leaves out essential societal needs, growth at all? It’s important to note that degrowth-ers do not argue for degrowth in developing countries. They see degrowth in the developed world as a necessary condition for an equitable pathway to curbing emissions. One of the best explanations of degrowth that I've seen comes from Timothée Parrique. My favorite part of his 15 minute talk: “..Capitalism is supposed to be this haven of innovation except for the system as a whole which should always stay the same. I mean we’re wasting the minds of our most creative people designing larger SUVs and sneaky ways to bring us to McDonalds but we never do this for the economy as a whole.” Worth the entire 15 minutes if you’re looking to understand degrowth at a high level: https://lnkd.in/deV7C25S #climatejustice #degrowth #climatesolutions #climatecommunication ------------------- 👋🏾 I'm Shreya Krishnan, the Climate Change Marketer.

Markets soar as winter warms As we observe the financial markets hitting unprecedented highs alongside a winter that feels more like spring, it's a stark reminder of the rapidly changing world we inhabit. This unique scenario presents both challenges and opportunities for professionals and businesses alike. The robust performance of the markets, despite the unpredictable climate, underscores the resilience and adaptability of businesses. It's a testament to innovation, strategic foresight, and the relentless pursuit of growth. However, the unseasonable warmth serves as a critical reminder of the pressing need for sustainable practices and climate-conscious decision-making in our professional endeavors. What does this mean for us as leaders, entrepreneurs, and changemakers? It signals a time for reflection, innovation, and action. We're called to: 🌿 Embrace Sustainability: Let's integrate sustainable practices into our business models, recognizing that economic success goes hand in hand with environmental stewardship. 👉 Innovate Responsibly: As markets thrive, let's ensure our growth strategies are inclusive and sustainable, leveraging technology for good. 👉 Lead with Empathy: Understanding the broader implications of our actions has never been more critical. Let's lead with empathy, considering the social and environmental impact of our decisions. The intersection of thriving markets and a warming winter is more than a coincidence—it's a call to action. Let's leverage this moment to foster growth that is not only financial but also sustainable and equitable. #sustainability #innovation

There is big debate in France about "de-consumption", is it a trend ? or is it just an adaptation to inflation? Well, check our last Future Consumer Index if you want the answer : For 73%, that’s an effort to save money, and 49% feel they don’t need those items anyway. But 39% are trying to buy less to help the environment! It is an actual emerging behaviour. What a challenge for brands!
