2 weeks ago I skipped Climate Week for the Future of Finance organized by FMO, a bank with a vision of a world where we live well within planetary boundaries. I was happy FMO was pleased with my keynote on economic system change, and even happier to see participants connecting to work towards it!

"Is investment a claim to future profit, or a commitment to a common future? Is ownership a right to do with something as one pleases or a responsibility of care?"
I spoke about #limitstogrowth, a #wellbeingeconomy and #degrowth in my keynote at the Sustainable Finance Summit in Montréal last week.

Anyone working in systems change knows this moment in history is about being half hospice and half midwife. The old system is dying, and the new one is coming into existence. It's a painful experience (as I after two home births can attest to). But the outcome is what we've been waiting for. #Banksy

"There was a time" when the WaPo was trying to "cover all views". Now it's a full-blown propaganda machine.
