  • Explains the purpose of the resource pack and how it works; written from the author's perspective as useful background reading for users of the pack I have a question for you, yes you! - the reader of this document: how does the work you do affect the wellbeing of the world around you? How might it affect the world in years to come? Yes I know these are rather huge questions that probably require huge and complex answers, but I think it is worthwhile each of us asking these questions every now and then for the sake of our own consciences and the world in which we live.

  • I felt a difference in Holland with the most surprising part being the language used around the subject. Merieke van der Werf, a politician from Amsterdam, talked about not just improving the current industrial system to be a bit more efficient, but redesigning how it worked so that it actually had a positive impact.
  • I absolutely love their thinking, which turns everything on its head.
