The conference was an amazingly diverse collection of people from all corners of the World. What united participants was their concern for how to respond to the challenges of supporting planet, people and all other species in a World where traditional economics seems to be struggling to find viable answers. This is where Green Economics is increasingly gaining support in challenging traditional views and using inclusive approaches to expand the dialogue and seek new answers to old questions.
Miriam was kind enough to ask me to be one of the speakers at the conference and I was delighted to do so. My talk was entitled "Reflections from a sustainability newbie" - attached below.
