Matthieu Ricard, a Buddhist monk and public thinker, advocates cultivating altruistic love and compassion to address key challenges: short-term economic stability, mid-term life satisfaction, and long-term environmental sustainability. His radical yet simple message has influenced economists like Amartya Sen and Joseph Stiglitz, and he has shared it at Davos and the United Nations.

Ricard asserts this ancient wisdom benefits both society and individuals. Despite its simplicity, the text questions why implementing this solution to our 21st-century predicaments proves so challenging.

While forests have often been viewed as inert resources, Suzanne Simard’s revolutionary research is transforming forest ecology. A Professor of Forestry at the University of British Columbia, Simard’s groundbreaking work reveals the complex, interconnected nature of forests, particularly the below-ground fungal networks that facilitate interplant communication. Her findings echo the wisdom of First Peoples, offering a new paradigm for sustainable living on Earth.

A short animation from the Ellen MacArthur Foundation introduces this concept, illustrating how a performance model could benefit businesses, users, and the wider economy. This approach is a vital component in the transition to a regenerative circular economy.
