The dilemmas are stark: economic growth vs emission reductions, equity & just transitions, market driven commercial solutions & behaviour vs policy interventions, individual behavioural change, biodiversity & the planets limited carrying capacity.
I had the pleasure of being the speaker coach for TedX Queenstown for a few years from 2013-2016. One of the compelling speakers I worked with was Tony Crabb. His simple formula for making individual, organisational & significant reductions in emissions is expressed by the equation PxE=C – People x Energy = Carbon.
The simplest of ideas are often the best – people can see themselves making a contribution & can see where they fit.
