Sustainable in a Circular World:design and restore natural ecosystems through innovationThe world needs to move from grey to green, fueled by design techniques that are sustainable in a circular economy. Sustainability intentionally maximizes the environmental, social, governance, and digital actions to fully engage its potential around a long-term motivational direction. These three components environmental, social, and financial come together to build up the digital age and lead to transformation, creating real change in society. Understanding the generational differences will help close the gap that exists when discussing rebuilding the damage that has occurred to the Earth’s natural environmental since the Industrial Revolution. Communicating and getting everyone on the same pages requires a deep understanding of all the players and helping each individual, company, and country, be heard while having their objectives met.This book takes a deep dive into:•The forces shaping sustainability including generational differences, social connections, and circularity.•A historical look at the technological revolution including the Amazon Effect, Prime, showrooming, ship it my way, among others.•The basics of sustainability including sustainability 101, governance, ESG three pillars, stewardship across generations, the supply chain, the Paris Agreement, generative families, giving back to the community, the Microsoft Way, and going global.•Case studies in industries such as mining, construction, services, smart cities, and agriculture.

This book provided some great insights for business and consumers alike. This book has helped me to understand what it means to be sustainable and what myself, as well as others, can do to help make the world around us more sustainable for the future and save our planet. Overall, it was a great read with great examples/case studies that helped bring to light what we can do from both a smaller, more individualized scale, as well as what business and groups can do to help from a larger scale. Five Stars!!

Insightful and comprehensive

Reviewed in the United States on March 24, 2021

So often we think in a linear fashion about things for which we have passion. We get focused on only one aspect and miss the underlying causes and the potential impacts of actions that may be taken. Peggy Smedley helps us step back and view things with the current situation and the future in mind. This book is insightful and comprehensive. I highly recommend that people of all ages read this.

A current & lucid assessment of the many factors that are straining our economy & ecosystem. And importantly coupled with a reframing of the way we can evaluate these issues to find viable solutions. I hope education systems get this text in the hands of our youth.

I am going crazy with delight regarding your book. Love the personal touch with the Greatest Generation explanation and stories of your in-laws.
I am BIG in diversity. Your inclusiveness in mentioning music makers brought tears to my eyes.
WOW, you are incredible.

Reviewed in the United States on May 16, 2022

This book provides a historical look at innovation and sustainability, with present-day case studies, and opportunities for the future. Smedley identifies how the different generations can make an impact today and for years to come. For those interested in learning more about sustainability, the correlation to innovation, and moving to a more circular world, this is the book for you. It couldn't come at a better time, as we all need to be responsible stewards of the world we live in.
