Speakers
Professor Roland Geyer of UCSB
The Business of Less: The Role of Companies and Households on a Planet in Peril
Since its inception thirty years ago, environmental sustainability has been based on the concepts
of “eco-efficiency” and “win-win”. Despite countless eco-efficiency and win-win efforts across
the world, the state of the natural environment has further degraded instead of improved. This
talk first explains why our current approach to environmental sustainability was doomed to fail
and then introduces a new set of principles that together provide a road map, for businesses and
for households, to a world in which human prosperity and a healthy environment are no longer at
odds.
