Regenerative economy: a return to nature with Doughnut Economics Action Lab

Our economic system is based on extracting as much value as possible from natural resources, without taking into consideration the principles and processes that power our ecosystems.

Somehow, as humans, we have come to believe that we are not part of the natural world in an “us and them” situation. But, really, we are all the same. How can we survive without the Earth?

Keeping our planet liveable means integrating our activities with nature, protecting and serving ecosystems, rather than exploiting them. If we focused on regeneration, rather than extraction, we could create a new balance.

In our latest episode, Giulia talks about the regenerative economy with Erinch Sahan, business & enterprise lead at Doughnut Economics Action Lab (DEAL). They cover the concept of biomimicry, how companies can adopt a regenerative approach, and the benefits it will bring to society, from an environmental but also a social perspective.
