Design Council Digest: Designing for Planet-Positive Business 🌎 The urgency to address climate change is transforming how businesses approach sustainability. In our second SODA X Design Council Digest column, Design Council Expert Jane Aslanidis highlights the vital role of design in driving planet-positive outcomes: - Planet-positive businesses are shifting the focus beyond just doing less harm to the environment and instead are focusing on actively finding solutions to restore ecosystems, reduce waste, and regenerate natural resources. - The global economy is shifting towards sustainability and those who fail to integrate design as part of this transition risk being left behind. By making design a core principle that drives innovation, businesses can create products and systems that tackle the complexities of sustainability head-on rather than as an afterthought.  - Across sectors like agriculture and food production, design has become a driving force for sustainable economic diversification. By innovating through design, businesses can develop more resilient models that adapt to environmental constraints while promoting sustainability. - In the UK, design is playing a pivotal role in urban planning, sustainable cities, and infrastructure development. Australian businesses, particularly those in agriculture, such as the Bega Group’s Circular Valley program and its development of a National Centre for Circularity, show how design can help industries adapt to extreme climate conditions. - Businesses need to rethink how they operate, produce, and innovate in a way that aligns with the planet’s needs and design needs to be at the heart of the shift.

Sustainability isn’t just work; it’s a way of life 🙃 When I started working in circular design, I thought my focus on sustainability would remain professional. But then I realized that sustainability is in every step we take. It’s not just about reaching the destination but about how we travel the path, minimizing impact and respecting the environment 🏔️ Today, sustainability is in every decision: from the products I consume to how I connect with nature. Here at Round Corner Engineering, every design follows that same philosophy: minimize impact, maximize value. How does sustainability influence your daily life? 🌍♻️🥾 #Sustainability #CircularDesign #Nature #RoundCorner #ImpactfulDesign

When we're not fully informed, it's easy to get tangled in myths that block our path to making a positive impact on the environment.
