Comment on Beyond Boom-And-Bust? by Pia Koch

Pia Koch — Thu, 20 Oct 2011 06:06:12 +0000

Probably true that applying the ususal business models/thinking (male dominated??) to green growth might or will lead to a green bubble. Frugal innovation combined with behavioural change could offer a more sustainable solution. Considering the number of people in general and the ones aspiring for middle class living standards( which are relativ to the country/region in question) one could say “thank god” the economy ist slowing down. We as a planet simply do not have the natural ressources to proceed as usual.We do not need all that stuff and will need to learn to prioritize. Live in industrialized countries will become quieter in a slower pace, which can be a good thing for our quality of life and psyke. Hopefully emerging countries are more cautious about which path to choose, more aware of the downsides and more respectful of our common ground and heritage: “mother earth and it´s creatures”

Comment on Community – not just a stakeholder but the purpose of business by Craig Duckmanton

These visionaries are rare in the short term sightlines and outcomes offered up by corporate executives, sharemarkets and fund managers who seem to make extraordinary decisions on behalf of their shareholders based entirely on financial gain or loss, with almost nought offered up for sustainability and responsibility. These latter two are constantly pushed aside as the triple line hypocracy is poorly weighted. In this digital age we have the ability to ask shareholders direct; not just corporate shareholders, but unit holders of fund managers all the way down the line. These “cowboys” in charge of funds ride around with absolute power, yet the true intent, or values, of their ultimate owner is raely, if ever, sought out. This has to change.
