A sustainable business is resource efficient, respects the environment and is a good neighbour
From dawn to dusk, winter to spring, summer & autumn; the contrasts of nature refresh the mind & renew our sense of balance
Without environmental sustainability, economic stability and social cohesion cannot be achieved
Business and the environment: Wasting resources costs the earth - and lowers your competitive edge
It's for management to enthuse & motivate employees towards excellence in service; the profit incentive doesn't last
Sustainable energy + food security + healthy environment = full employment + better future.
Everybody talks about population growth and its disastrous effect on climate change, food security and resource depletion, but nobody does anything about it
We can't always control what happens but we can control our response
To care for the natural world is the most effective insurance policy we can have
Destroying green belt agricultural land for immediate economic gain is like burning your children's inheritance to cook a single meal
Economic growth won't feed a growing population living on this finite planet
The economic downturn is our wake-up call to slow down, consume less, help each other, & live more!
21st Century choice: Look after our planet and it will look after us, or don't and face the consequences
Success in your life is not a single achievement. It's all that you do with others and for others
Short term "dash for cash" economic solutions hinder progress towards a better, more sustainable, world
No economic measure has more value for a nation than investing in a clean & sustainable low carbon future
Reasons to be positive. The economic downturn could be the catalyst for positive change. It should be translated into the wake-up call we need for a major change in aspirations and lifestyles to save humanity from the ecological and economic disaster that would otherwise result from continuing on the high carbon and resource depleting path we have been pursuing
A stable 21st century society requires 21st century solutions not 20th century economics
When politicians & economists understand we live in a finite world & act accordingly then a better future has a chance
The 20th Century approach to economics, resource depletion and over-consumption means we boom and bust until we bust more than we boom; that is precisely what is happening. In a low growth economy, the true meaning of resource efficiency in business and in everything we do is essential
Living in an orgy of unrestrained consumption and economic growth accompanied by population expansion that ignores the carrying capacity of local environments will lead to disaster
Those living in rural areas as well as those with a planning policy remit for those areas have an important responsibility to protect green belt agricultural land for the wider benefit of feeding the UK into the uncertain future that we all face
WHAT IF we all treat other people as we wish to be treated? MORE happiness. LESS selfishness, crime, fraud, hatred, terrorism, wars.
Low carbon, resource efficient solutions and halting then reversing population growth are two sides of the same coin
It is environmental illiteracy and a complete lack of forward thinking to ignore the need to halt and then reverse population growth in the context of climate change, travel congestion, unaffordable housing, and resource depletion
