Es geht nicht um reduce, reuse, recycle, sondern um rethink, reinvent, redesign", sagt Michael Braungart: Wenn wir unser Leben und Wirtschaften voranbringen wollen, dann nützt es wenig, bestehende Prozesse und Produkte so anzupassen, dass sie weniger schädlich sind. Stattdessen braucht es einen radikalen Kurswechsel: Wir müssen auf eine Art des Wirtschaftens und Lebens setzen, die Ressourcen erhält, statt sie zu verbrauchen. Mit seinem "Cradle to Cradle"-Konzept einer Kreislaufwirtschaft ist Prof. Dr. Michael Braungart ein weltweit gefragter Berater, Redner und Autor - gerade jetzt, in Zeiten des ökonomischen und ökologischen Umbruchs. In EVERY DAY COUNTS #071 haben wir ihn gefragt, wie Arbeit, Führung und Kollaboration sich ändern müssen, um ebenfalls zukunftsfähig zu werden - weg von den "weniger schlechten" Konzepten und hin zu den wirklich effektiven. MICHAEL BRAUNGART ist Professor für Ecodesign an der Leuphana Universität Lüneburg und Professor für den Cradle-to-Cradle-Studiengang an der Erasmus-Universität Rotterdam. Der promovierte Chemiker ist Gründer der Environmental Protection Encouragement Agency (EPEA), die zu öko-effektiven Produkten, Dienstleistungen und Prozessen forscht und berät. Zu seinen Veröffenltichungen zählt u.a., mit William McDonough, "Cradle to Cradle: Remaking the Way We Make Things".

Her er episoden, du ikke vil misse, for der er penge i at lytte til dagens udgave af Bæredygtig Business! Her taler Steffen Max Høgh med Nicholas Mohr Krøyer, som er senior forretningsudvikler i Erhvervshus Hovedstaden, som sidste år vejledte over 250 virksomheder i bæredygtighed. Nicholas kalder selv de seks danske Erhvervshuse for ”Danmarks største hemmelighed”. I Erhvervshusene kan du og din virksomhed for eksempel både få gratis og uvildig vejledning samt tilskud til at betale løn til medarbejdere, der arbejder med bæredygtighed. Lyt med og bliv klogere på de fire puljer af penge, der ligger i SMV Grøn, Grønne Kompetencer, CO2-puljen og SMV Vækstpilot, og som kan hjælpe jeres bæredygtighedsarbejde et rigtigt godt stykke på vejen. Du kan høre om: • Klimakompasset, Bæredygtighedshjulet, (hvor alle typer virksomheder, kan screene sig selv for, hvor bæredygtige de er), Væksthjulet og andre gode værktøjer, man kan benytte ganske gratis • Virksomhedernes tre største udfordringer: o Greenwashing & kommunikation af bæredygtige tiltag o Rapportering så de kan følge den nye EU-lovgivning o Strukturering af virksomhedernes tiltag og hvordan de får størst effekt af mindst mulige penge • Hvorvidt erhvervshusene tager levebrødet fra de konsulenter, der lever af at rådgive om bæredygtighed – hertil svarer Nicholas nej. De ”varmer virksomhederne op”, så konsulenten kan tage over. Erfaringen viser, fortæller Nicholas, at virksomheder, der normalt ikke ville bruge konsulenter, begynder på det. Nævnt i episoden: • Erhvervsfremmebestyrelsen og en oversigt over alle Erhvervshuse i Danmark: https://erhvervsfremmebestyrelsen.dk/tvaerkommunale-erhvervshuse • Cradle to Cradle (bog): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cradle_to_Cradle:_Remaking_the_Way_We_Make_Things • SMV Grøn: https://virksomhedsprogrammet.dk/content/ydelser/smvgroen/bab6c5de-d96e-41d9-bc48-363d7d270776/ • Klimakompasset https://klimakompasset.dk/klimakompasset/ • New Loop: https://thenewloop.dk/ • Maria Black Jewelry: https://www.maria-black.com/dk/ • Væksthjulet: https://vaeksthjulet.net/ • Bæredygtighedshjulet: https://erhvervshushovedstaden.dk/baeredygtighed/ • European Sustainability Reporting Standards – ESRS: https://www.danskindustri.dk/vi-radgiver-dig/virksomhedsregler-og-varktojer/regnskab-og-rapportering/rapportering-om-baredygtighed/european-sustainability-reporting-standards---esrs/ Tips, idéer eller ønsker?

Catherine is talking to Michael Smith, General Partner of Regeneration.VC, an investment fund set up earlier in 2022 that is investing in solutions addressing the climate emergency. The Regeneration.VC advisory board includes Bill McDonough, one of the early and leading thinkers on the circular economy, and co-author of Cradle to Cradle: Remaking the Way We Make Things. The board also includes Leonardo di Caprio, Academy Award®-winning actor, producer, and activist, and a longtime champion of global environmental issues. Michael explains how Regeneration.VC is focusing on potential game changers - for example, those using biomimetic approaches to innovation for materials, or on new recycling technology – and why it's important to focus on regenerative innovations, as well as circular models. We hear about Regeneration.VC's investment strategy, which looks at new ventures through 3 lenses: design (systems and materials inspired by natural processes), use (circular brands and products) and reuse (technologies repurposing materials and products). Michael shares highlights of a few of the companies in the portfolio and explains why he thinks they are such exciting investments.

Welcome to the 110th episode of Urbcast, in which we will talk about: How to build people and planet positive homes?

We welcome back the legendary William McDonough, architect and vanguard of the circular economy to The Indisposable Podcast. (He is also returning as a judge and will be presenting at The Reusies this year!). Journey with Bill as he describes how the revelatory intersections of science, art, math, and nature influenced his approach to design, sustainability, and ultimately – a model for the new reuse economy.Resources: mcdonough.comCradle to Cradle: Remaking the Way We Make ThingsThe UpcycleBe a Reuser, Not a Consumer: 2021 Indisposable Podcast interview with William McDonough

William “Bill” McDonough pioneered the green architecture field, creating buildings that create more energy than they use, clean their own air and water, and create habitats for native wildlife. His book and work on the “Cradle to Cradle” approach spread the idea that waste equals food, helping to spark the circular economy movement.  Bill has won two presidential awards and was recognized by Time Magazine as a hero for the planet. Fortune ranked him #24 of the world's 50 greatest leaders. He brings sage wisdom and poetry to this conversation. Are you ready to push the boundaries of your thinking?

“I think believing in something is also part of the responsibility of the believer to sift through these things. So there are a lot of people saying I'm green because they do something less badly. So for me, it's not green yet, it's just less bad. It's not really good yet. It's not really fabulous, but that just means there's an opportunity to keep going to share information and help each other because in the end, I think what we're dealing with now is the recognition that the world has a very serious issue with climate, that's very clear now. So how can we help each other? The question is no longer what is wrong with the way you're doing it. The real question now is how can I help you?”McDonough advises leaders on ESG strategies through McDonough Innovation, is an architect with William McDonough + Partners, and provides product assessments through MBDC, the creators of the Cradle to Cradle Certified™ Products Program. He has been active with the World Economic Forum for 25 years and served as the inaugural chair of their Meta-Council on the Circular Economy. He recently articulated the Circular Carbon Economy, a framework for carbon management, and presented the concept at COP25 and at 2020 G20 workshops. William McDonough is a globally recognized leader in sustainable design and development. He has written and lectured extensively on design as the first signal of human intention.

Today I talk to Gene Gurkoff, the founder and CEO of Charity Miles. It's a fitness app that helps people raise money for their favorite charities through corporate sponsorships. Gene started running marathons to raise funds for Parkinson's research after his grandfather was diagnosed with the disease, and he helped to found the Fox Foundation with Michael J. Fox. Later Gene founded Charity Miles to help employees convert their steps into money for places like the Fox Foundation and other charitable groups. Gene gives his tips for healthy living: eat right, exercise, and don't make an app. He also recommends two of his favorite books: Cradle to Cradle: Remaking the Way We Make Things by William McDonough and Once a Runner by John Parker.For more information about us, visit https://OffScrip.com and follow @MatthewZachary, @VaxOnPod, and @OffScripHealth on Twitter.

In 2002, the architect William McDonough and the chemist Michael Braungart came up with a rather revolutionary idea. The duo had recently published their groundbreaking book, "Cradle to Cradle: Remaking the Way We Make Things," and would go on to become leaders in the sustainability movement, In fact, they anticipated many aspects of what we today call the circular economy. But back in 2002, the architect and the chemist wrote an essay titled Buildings Like Trees, Cities Like Forests for a book called "The Catalog of the Future." Today, 20 years later, we return to that idea: Can buildings be like trees? This episode includes two segments. First, Metropolis editor in chief Avinash Rajagopal reads the introduction to Braungart and McDonough's essay. Then, we dive into Urban Sequoia, a proposal by the architecture firm SOM that takes giant redwood trees as the inspiration for carbon-capturing skyscrapers and cities.

Ryan Honeyman is a Partner at LIFT Economy, an impact consulting firm whose mission is to create, model, and share a locally self-reliant and inclusive economy that works for the benefit of all life.   Ryan is also a coauthor of The B Corp Handbook: How to Use Business as a Force for Good (Berrett-Koehler Publishers). Ryan has helped over 50 companies— including Patagonia, Allbirds, and Ben & Jerry's—become Certified B Corporations, or to recertify, and maximize the value of their B Corp certification.   Along with his LIFT Economy team, Ryan works with businesses to help them integrate the principles of diversity, equity, and inclusion into their organization. Ryan has a particular focus on working with other white-identified folks (particularly companies that are white-led and/or majority white) in order to help educate, organize, and mobilize as part of a multi-racial, cross-class movement towards collective liberation.   Find out more about the LIFT Economy here.   In This Episode We Discuss: The relationship and distinction between B Corp, B Labs, and Public Benefit Corporations The most common hurdles companies face on their path to becoming a certified B Corp What a “worker cooperative” is Why not all investments are created equal, and the power of a holistic stakeholder perspective     Key Takeaways: Remember that each of us has a voice, and within that voice there is power. As shareholders, we have the power to choose the companies we invest in as well as power to ask for those companies to consider all stakeholders (and we can support them with our votes to legally transition to a public benefit corporation). As employees, we have power to ask what our employer's environmental, social and governance (ESG) strategy is, where your company currently stands, and how they're trying to improve. What would it look like if businesses were driven by humanity instead of efficiency? How would the decisions we make change? How would our working environment change? How would our relationship to work change? How would our communities change? The importance of looking at the ripple effects of our actions—the second and third order consequences—both good and bad. Considering the ripple effect gives a holistic perspective of our impact, and can help us make more intentional, informed, and equitable decisions.   References: Follow Ryan on Twitter Learn more about the Next Economy MBA program Sign up for the LIFT Economy newsletter Listen to the Next Economy Now podcast The B Corp Handbook (Second Edition): How You Can Use Business as a Force for Good by Ryan Honeyman & Dr. Tiffany Jana B Lab and general information about the B Corporation movement Cradle to Cradle: Remaking the Way We Make Things by William McDonough & Michael Braungart Author Paul Hawken The United Nations' Sustainable Development goals Seed Commons network of community loan funds Boston Ujima Project Southern Reparations Loan Fund B Impact Assessment tool for your company   Connect & Share: If you enjoy the podcast, would you please consider leaving a short review on Apple Podcasts/iTunes?

Cet épisode nous amène à réfléchir sur la finance à impact dans le Capital Risque et donne de nombreux éléments concrets pour s'engager et adapter sa thèse d'investissement. Au travers de l'expérience d'Eutopia, nous découvrons comment la finance peut réellement contribuer au renouvellement de notre économie. Un beau message d'espoir hyper revigorant ! Antoine partage avec nous la thèse d'investissement de cette société de gestion, lancée au départ au sein d'Otium Capital qui a désormais pris son indépendance. Eutopia a investi ses fonds dans une trentaine de StartUp qui repensent réellement nos modes de consommation et permettent de répondre au changement de paradigme qui s'opère dans notre société. Nous comprenons à quel point nos modes de consommation évoluent de manière rapide et brutale. Nous faisons un tour sur les contraintes réglementaires, les labels tels que BCorp, les entreprises à mission, les mécaniques de carried et les trois piliers de l'impact.  Antoine nous détaille la manière dont Eutopia s'y prend pour sélectionner ses investissements, pour évangéliser et former les entrepreneurs de son portefeuille sur ces sujets et enfin quelles méthodologies d'évaluation et de mesure ils utilisent pour quantifier l'impact. On repart avec deux livres à lire :  Cradle to Cradle: Remaking the Way We Make Things de Michael Braungart Le chevalier à l'armure rouillée de Robert Fischer Bonne écoute à tous !

Quantum Quote: “Anything that works for big buildings you can do for your house. It's just a matter of scale” – Gibson Craig “The Power of Earth, with Comfort” by ClimateMaster empowers homeowners with the knowledge of Geothermal - the most efficient (and environmentally sustainable) form of heating and cooling - as well as the utility and government incentives that make the transition financially smart. Today's program is with Westchester Homeowner Gibson Craig. “Gib” and his wife built a new home in Westchester, NY in 2017. They innovated and took advantage of developing technology to have a robust, insulated house that is heated and cooled with the power of the earth - and saw a 25% return on their investment. Geothermal has been keeping consumers comfortable for more than 50 years, and can cut energy bills by up to 70% compared to traditional HVAC units. A 26 federal tax credit reduces the cost, and the local utility - ConEdison - provides both an up-front incentive - and a reduced electric rate. Gibson Craig is Director of Preconstruction for a local developer of multi-family apartments.  He is involved in pre-planning, purchasing, and roll-out of major trades. In this episode, Gib shares with us the considerations he and his wife made in deciding to install a geothermal heat source for their home, the opportunity for significant energy savings and comfort, and how government and utility incentives helped them in making their clean energy investment easier and seamless. If you're considering installing a GHP system for your home or business - here are the things you need to know about geothermal. Sign up for a free webclass to discover how easy it is to get ultra-efficient geothermal heating and cooling installed in your home – without the pain of emptying your savings account. In “The Power Of Earth with Comfort” From ClimateMaster a free webclass, you'll discover the answers every homeowner needs to know, including: How geothermal heating and cooling can draw energy from the ground beneath our feet (for pennies) Why homeowners everywhere are making the switch. The secrets to securing utility incentives and tax credits to pay for a large portion of your new geothermal system   and much more … Why did you choose a geothermal (ground source) heat pump for your home? “There was a generous federal tax credit at the time. That made the first cost almost the same While Geo still cost more, I had a payback of three or four years on the system. Now I have less bills, and less operating costs.” What type of system did you install? Does it provide heating, cooling & hot water? Closed-loop system that provides heating and cooling, and supplements our hot water in the summer months when the excess heat would be sent back into the ground. How did you decide on geo vs. alternatives - and how did you choose the particular manufacturer & installers? For equipment decisions, we relied on our installer's recommendations.  We got bids from 3 or 4 HVAC contractors and we went with Bell HVAC.  Keith Bell (the owner) had a really great price, understood some of the complexities of our house and our goals to integrate a wood burning stove with the overall heating strategy.  On top of that, we could tell he was a genuinely good person. How do you like the system? What do you like best about it? Little to no maintenance, no oil deliveries, quiet, no combustion in our basement.  Which also means less risk of CO poisoning.  The last thing you want to think about is something breaking and it's been great. Did you have any problems with the decision process, incentives,  installation,  on-going operations, or maintenance? Really not very many problems. Just learning experiences. When you build something new, you're gonna learn. Where there any lessons learned that you'd care to share? Anything you would do differently next time? Wouldn't really do much different. It was just a process. When you go on construction, the unexpected happens. And as long as you stay the course, you'll get there.  Recommendation. What are the biggest things people should do when they are evaluating their heating & cooling system options? You should really think about this 100%, especially if you don't have access to gas right in the street. If you don't have access to gas, I'd say you definitely 100% should be sure to go to geothermal. If you have access to gas, it's a little bit more of a question. But in the end, it would still pay for itself in time (especially with the utility and government incentives.) What is your next step with your home?  We are looking at Solar, we have a 100-foot tall ridge with tall trees on the south and west side of our home so the payback isn't quite there without performing a logging operation.  With Covid going on, our next project will probably be building a small office studio in our side yard. Best advice - "If you are afraid to fail, you will never succeed" and "The easiest thing to do in the world is pull the covers up over your head and go back to sleep."  Habits - “Getting up really early and going for a 20 or 30-minute jog in the morning before breakfast. Helps me disconnect, get exercise, and energizes me for the day.” Internet source – The US Green Building Council (USGBC) Book Recommendation: Cradle to Cradle: Remaking the Way We Make Things  Magic Wand: Aside from the obvious answers of COVID being a thing of the past and political tensions being eased…I would say that cleaning up our oceans is a really important issue. Currently, more than 5 trillion pieces of plastic litter the ocean, which has a profound and devastating impact on ecosystems. The Ocean Cleanup is a very cool non-profit organization that's dedicated to cleaning up 90% of ocean plastic pollution by the year 2040. They've also implemented a great solution that gives all the plastic they collect a new life by developing durable products out of the trash. You can purchase things like really cool sunglasses, and the profits pay for more trash to be removed from the ocean and re-used. Most energized today - Upcoming company projects: Geothermal for multifamily. Geothermal often isn't used in commercial buildings, as there are some logistical challenges with fitting (60) 500-foot wells under a parking garage that is 25' below grade.  But these are the problems I enjoy participating in and finding solutions for.  Piece of parting advice -  Stay healthy. Try not to catch the virus and keep good care of yourself Connect:  Linkedin: https://www.linkedin.com/in/gibson-craig-68a05b88/    

Michael created the concept of “Cradle to Cradle” as a young chemist and, in 2002, with his American friend Bill McDonough, the bestseller 'Cradle to Cradle: Remaking the Way We Make Things' was published.He founded the chemistry division of Greenpeace. His first-class science mind leaves him sceptical about many popular environmental solutions.Braungart is constantly explaining how much we need to know if we are to make the world a better place. And how much detail we already do know but which we sometimes stubbornly ignore.—Recorded live at the global event in Cardigan, west Wales in 2008.Watch Michael's full talk here: www.thedolectures.com/talks/michael-braungart-why-less-bad-isnt-better

In this episode of Live. Well. Green., we explore the concept of Cradle to Cradle, which is a great solution for preserving the finite planet we live on. The two remarkable sustainability thinkers who popularized this idea are Michael Braungart and William McDonough, through their book of the same title, which was published in 2002. You will learn how we can apply their principles to various industries, developments, and to the economy as a whole; how it relates to lifecycle assessment; and to the bigger picture circular economy concepts of upsizing. Considering that nature produces no waste, it should be possible for us to copy that model by developing products and processes that can be reintegrated back into the system, causing no or limited harm to the environment. However, this requires a mindset shift concerning the importance of the economy versus of the planet. What we should always keep in mind is that the earth has finite resources and we know that we are already exploiting it to its capacity. Stay tuned to learn how it can be implemented! Key Points From This Episode:• Popular understandings about the importance of the environment versus the economy.• Why the environment is the priority framework of which the economy forms part. • Learn about the American architect who was an early adopter of sustainability in design. • Michael Braungart and William McDonough’s Waste = Food documentary. • A series of subsequent collaborative projects, including the book Cradle to Cradle. • Closing the loop of the cradle-to-grave model of the lifecycle of products and processes. • The idea behind Cradle to Cradle – the need for us to operate with a model of zero waste. • Learn how the practice of biomimicry can preserve the environment for the next generation. • An overview of the foundations of Cradle to Cradle, including fair labor practices. • A quote from the book about rethinking our systems and processes. • Examples of products that have been designed in alignment with Cradle to Cradle values.

Desde pequeño, Ahmad Ashrafi, ha estado ligado a la tierra y a la agricultura. Al crecer, se dio cuenta que el tesoro de los Incas estaba en la fertilidad de la tierra y eso fue la inspiración para fundar su compañía, Inca's Treasure, que produce super foods como quínoa, chía, amaranto y frutas deshidratadas, que se venden en Estados Unidos, Canadá, Medio Oriente y Europa. En éste episodio de Maestros del Escalamiento, Ahmad nos cuenta la historia de su compañía, así como también sus experiencias como emprendedor; lo bueno y lo malo. Encuentra el por qué Ahad dice que un gran negocio o proyecto, siempre encuentra dinero.    Notas 1:18 Ahmad Ashrafi es un emprendedor de padre iraní y madre ecuatoriana. Él nació en Ecuador y vivió algunos años en el extranjero. 1:57 A pesar de que Ahmad es el CEO de Inca’s Treasure, en su empresa le ha tocado hacer de todo, como a muchos emprendedores. 2:33 Ahmad nos cuenta acerca de su trayectoria como emprendedor. 3:41 Él siempre quiso emprender y tenía una vocación con la tierra, con la agricultura. Desde pequeño, buscaba el tesoro de los Incas. Más grande, se da cuenta de que el verdadero tesoro de los Incas era la fertilidad de la tierra. El Ecuador es un sitio muy fértil que tiene el potencial para darle de comer al mundo. 7:00 Para fundar Inca’s Treasure, Ahmad se tardó desde la idea a concepción, 5 años. Su padre fue una de las personas que más lo apoyo y le dio una base para emprender.   8:05 Este es el primer año de operación de Inca’s Treasure. 8:44 Ahmad tiene una regla de 3, donde pasa una tercera parte de su tiempo con personas a las que les puede enseñar, una tercera parte con sus colegas y amigos y la otra tercera parte con personas de las que puede aprender como mentores y gente que admira y que le inspiran. La red de EO le sirve para esto último. 9:40 Ahmad habla sobre su rutina diaria. 11:11 Ahmad habla sobre lo que más le gusta de ser emprendedor. Él se siente afortunado de poder tener una idea de negocio y verla en la realidad. 12:07 Ahmad profundiza en lo que hace su empresa y el mercado que tiene. 13:11 Ahmad habla sobre lo más duro de ser emprendedor, como los sacrificios con su familia y amigos. El recurso de apoyo más grande que ha tenido es involucrar a su familia en su emprendimiento. 15:02 Daniel Marcos le pregunta a Ahmad cuáles son los libros que más le han servido en su negocio. Scaling Up de Vern Harnish ha sido muy bueno para expandir su conocimiento. Los otros libros son Essentialism de Greg McKeown y Cradle to Cradle de William McDonough y Michael Braungart. 16:41 Ahmad nos cuenta sobre una compra que hizo, de menos de $100 USD, que cambió su vida. 18:30 La Humildad y perseverancia es la clave de ser un buen ser humano. 19:20 El servir a las personas lo hace sentir exitoso. 20:00 Un consejo para él mismo es aprovechar al máximo cada momento y cada oportunidad. Tratar de absorber un poco más las cosas y disfrutar todo. 20:52 Recomendaciones para una persona que empieza a emprender: El que empieza un negocio no necesita dinero para empezar.
