Hello CCSD Community
Here is our bi-weekly Conscious Capitalism content share. We hope you find it informative and inspirational.
In the news
Absolut Vodka says they have nothing to hide. Transparency is key to their quality and sustainability accountability. They want the world to know by sharing this clever new add. This is a great example of a company understanding that they have a bigger responsibility than just generating profits and that their profits depend on the limited resources they need to make their products.
Impact
Making goods less bad not only can have a great impact on our communities and environment, but also on our economic growth. “Research by Accenture found that the circular economy can unlock $4.5 trillion of economic growth,” say McDonough, father of Circular Economy. Learn more why and how here.
Informative Read/View
A quick yet powerful read from the folks at The School of Life. How to Reform Capitalism does not explicitly call this reformed capitalism, Conscious Capitalism, but their argument for this much needed shift is absolutely aligned.
Inspiration
A poem inspired by our recent CCSD Strategy session. Created by our invaluable Advisor, Neville Billimoria.
In the unlikely event that the world is perfect just the way it is,
Where we actually have exactly what we need because:
The opposite of love is not hate, it is fear
and the opposite of ‘scare-city’ is not abundance, it is enough.
Then with hearts filled with love and an unbridled belief in our own capacity,
the world is perfect just the way it is
and together we have just manifested:
Let’s model and mentor
the change we want to see and be
To Elevate Humanity!
