Strategic Sustainability

A Pragmatic Blueprint for Responsible Business

A road map for developing responsible and innovative governance systems based on generative AI and other exponential technologiesAs exponential technology rapidly advances, leaders in every sector are faced with the challenge of harnessing its potential power while developing precautionary safeguards against its risks. From generative artificial intelligence to the future of quantum computing, these innovations are transforming the world at an unprecedented rate, leaving decision-makers unsure of how to maintain control and ensure responsible development.Governing Pandora focuses on multiple exponential technologies in order to demonstrate how leaders can develop responsible and innovative governance systems. This book equips leaders with frameworks and tools--including a detailed five-element "exponential governance mind-set"--to develop a more holistic tech governance approach for current and future waves of exponential tech. Andrea Bonime-Blanc encourages the development of a culture of collaboration across borders, sectors, and disciplines as technology takes on a bigger role in our ecosystem. She explains the context, risks, and opportunities of the ongoing exponential technology revolution so that leaders can futureproof themselves, their organizations, and key stakeholders with strategies and tactics to act responsibly, ethically, and successfully.This book speaks directly to executives, board members, policymakers, and organizational leaders who are tasked with charting a course through the advancement of modern technologies. Governing Pandora bridges the gap between exploring pure technology and managing and governing applied technology. Readers will learn not only how to develop a governance mind-set for exponential technology but also how to build organizational resilience.

Leading in the Age of Generative AI and Exponential Technology

Governing Pandora

What can one city tell us about the global textile waste problem? This Open Access study is the first detailed ethnography of clothing waste infrastructures that starts where the problem starts - the Global North. Based on more than 100 interviews, cultural anthropologist Heike Derwanz follows the journey of fast fashion in Hamburg, Germany: starting with two women from different socio-economic backgrounds sorting through their wardrobes, travelling through local flea markets, eBay, church clothes banks, upcycling brands and recycling sites, only to end up in homes and waste heaps in the Global South. Bringing together human agents such as designers, social workers and vintage sellers with objects from containers, plastic sacks and internet platforms to piles of sorted textiles, this on-the-ground cultural study reveals how the global economic system of fast fashion shapes local infrastructures entangled in everyday lives. Combining material culture, waste studies and economic perspectives to scrutinize the so-called circular economy of today's global textile recycling market, Derwanz investigates what agency modern consumers really have in the lifecycle of their clothes. The ebook editions of this book are available open access under a CC BY-NC-ND 4.0 licence on bloomsburycollections.com. Open access was funded by the Bloomsbury Open Collections Library Collective.

Transform your sustainability strategy with this roadmap for organizations looking to create transformative social and environmental impact amid compounding humanitarian and planetary crises.

As we face pressing environmental crises and witness the escalating impacts of climate change and biodiversity loss, current organizational approaches to addressing these issues fall short of the systemic changes needed. Impact Driven Sustainability is a strategic roadmap for every organization that needs to create effective and transformative social and environmental impact amid humanitarian and planetary crises. It urges organizations to evolve from passive to proactive leaders, making it a must-read for those committed to driving real change.

Impact Driven Sustainability offers readers the intuitive and efficient theories, tools, and techniques needed to plan, execute and report on individual or organizational purposes. By providing a range of innovative systems-thinking techniques, readers will learn how to structure impactful projects and campaigns effectively. Discussing how biases and blind spots can lead to avoidable mistakes, this book emphasises the importance of embracing a balanced, shared approach that is both intuitive and rational.

Handbook of Nature-Based Solutions to Mitigation and Adaptation to Climate Change

Sustainably Reducing Food Waste and Ensuring Food Security brings together academic professors, scientists, and policymakers from around the globe to address how to reduce food waste and increase access to nutritious food for all. By addressing the impact of waste-to-energy technologies, plant-based diets, alternative protein sources, and emerging technologies such as AI and blockchain, the authors will provide practical guidance for anyone interested in the sustainability of the global food system and the entire food supply chain, from production to consumption. This book is divided into five sections. Section one introduces the concept of sustainable foods systems including the importance and benefits, Section two explores the economic, environmental and social impacts of understanding food waste, Section three provides solutions for food waste reduction, Section four explores sustainable agriculture and alternative food sources, and Section five covers the role of technology, data analytics, policy, and education and outreach in building a sustainable food system.

Sustainably Reducing Food Waste and Ensuring Food Security

In the tradition of Elizabeth Kolbert and Michael Pollan, The Nature of Our Cities is a stirring exploration of how innovators from around the world are combining urban nature with emerging technologies, protecting the planet's cities from the effects of climate change and safeguarding the health of their inhabitants. We live in an age when humanity spends 90% of its time indoors, yet the nature around us-especially in America's cities-has never been more vital. This distancing from nature has sparked crises in mental health, longevity, and hope for the next generation, while also heightening the risks we face from historic floods, heatwaves, and wildfires. Indeed, embracing nature holds untapped potential to strengthen and fortify our cities, suburbs, and towns, providing solutions spanning flood preparation, wildfire management, and promoting longevity. As ecological engineer Dr. Nadina Galle shows in The Nature of Our Cities nature is our most critical infrastructure for tackling the climate crisis. It just needs a little help. &nbsp;A fellow at MIT's Senseable City Lab and selected for&nbsp;Forbes' 30 under 30 list, Galle is at the forefront of the growing movement to fuse nature and technology for urban resilience. In&nbsp;THE NATURE OF OUR CITIES, she embarks on a journey as fascinating as it is pressing, showing how scientists and citizens from around the world are harnessing emerging technologies to unlock the power of the natural world to save their cities, a phenomenon she calls the "Internet of Nature." Traveling the globe, Galle examines how urban nature, long an afterthought for many, actually points the way toward a more sustainable future. She reveals how technology can help nature navigate this precarious moment with modern advances such as:Laser-mapping that identifies at-risk neighborhoods to fight deadly health disparitiesA.I.-powered robots that prevent wildfires from reaching urban areasIntelligent water gardens that protect cities from floods and hurricanesAdvanced sensors that achieve 99% tree survival in dry, hot summers&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Optimistic in spirit yet pragmatic in approach, Galle writes persuasively that the future of urban life depends on balancing the natural world with the technology that can help sustain it. By turns clear-eyed and lyrical,&nbsp;THE NATURE OF OUR CITIES marks the emergence of an invigorating, prescient new talent in nature writing.
