A call for regeneration (#journal)


Sustainability is not enough: A call for regeneration

We are privileged to be alive at a pivotal moment in human history when all the settled assumptions of the last two centuries are up for renegotiation. New economic, political and social paradigms are evolving right now in response to the converging crises of climate change, energy insecurity and global economic instability. While undoubtedly alarming, the realities of our historic moment also present a window of opportunity. As educators, we can play an important role in preparing our students to play a constructive part in this regenerative project.

  1. Hi Chris,

    I couldn't agree with you more, and out of interest, my take on the regenerative vs sustainable aspect is published in the journal Science Progress (free via the link):
