Don’t forget. Real innovation is a lifestyle that is oriented towards nature, because we are a product of it. Our media is attention based and it will report mostly about things that are money driven (advertising). AI is one of the biggest waste of energy in the technological landscape. Especially the cheap availability for everyone is such a huge waste. No one looks at the progress made in permaculture or the benefits of sustainable architecture, because there is no real lobby behind those topics. We are the consumers. We can decide were we put our money.

Car-Optional Innovation District approved in Oxford, England - this is the future The typical Innovation District is car-centric, and conceived more as an office park or a factory than a Neighbourhood. Oxford University is innovating again with a model built around amazing discoveries and inventions but also around families and living, where cars are allowed as guests and allowed a small share of the footprint This is the future, today

👉 We need your help for the research of Stine Moons UA - Product Development Are you working in the domain of #innovation? Or are you working in the domain of #sustainability? 🛑 We’ve spotted a critical gap: innovation teams aren’t fully synced with sustainability goals. That’s why, Stine and Made Design & Innovation are researching the relation between sustainability and innovation within European organizations. Fill out the #survey and contribute to new insights on how companies can innovate for a more sustainable future. The survey takes only 15 minutes of your time and will be processed by University of Antwerp. 👇 Link in the first comment. Oh, by the way, we plant a tree for every completed survey in partnership with Go Forest! 🌳 Feel free to share or tag people in the comments. Questions or thoughts?

Hey! In our last post about YouRban, we introduced the project, explaining its mission and development process. ⨠ https://lnkd.in/dDcfbdRu 👀 To recap, YouRban co-creates an active #urban #ecosystem for #recycling and #upcycling objects and materials, with a special focus on reinforced polymers sourced from the local environment. 💡💆♂️ Now, let's dive deeper into YouRban's main goals: ‣ Create a decentralized de-remanufacturing system for plastic waste, closing material cycles, generating new products, and reducing environmental impact. ‣ Develop new value chains based on local economies, using artistic experimentation and regenerative design to foster inclusivity and resilience. ‣ Promote social and professional inclusion through participatory approaches and digital tools, educating communities on CoCreation and regenerative design. ‣ Establish sustainable urban networks, creating new artisan skills and jobs, and making recycling an attractive career option. ‣ Provide access to urban technologies for prototyping and creating handcrafted objects, supporting a flexible and efficient recycling model for MSMEs.✨🔄 Politecnico di Milano RIVIERASCA S.P.A. designaustria Fibereuse Tech Origoni Steiner LABAULA ARQUITECTES SCCLP Syxis For further information please visit our site on syxis.eu #Innovation #DigitalTransformation #Sustainability #InnovationHub #CollaborationForChange #FutureForward #TransformativePartnerships

Concrete and nature, in an unexpected duet, are paving the way towards sustainable futures. Through innovative design and mindful application, we're witnessing the birth of structures that not only stand the test of time but also coexist peacefully with the environment. This harmony speaks volumes about our potential to build a world where progress does not come at the cost of the planet. Together, we are setting the foundation for generations to come, proving that sustainability and development can go hand in hand. . . . #ConcreteHarmony #SustainableFutures #EcoInnovation

This is Oslo in 2009 and 2024. In 2009 - Highways and concrete dominated the landscape, with cars taking center stage. Fast forward 15 years: ↓ 🔹 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟰 - That same street has transformed into a green haven with trees, bike lanes, and pedestrian-friendly spaces. Meanwhile, Oslo achieved several milestones: 🔹 𝟮𝟬𝟭𝟵: Earned the title of European Green Capital, leading the way in sustainability. 🔹 𝟮𝟬𝟮𝟮: Ranked #1 in the Sustainable Cities Index, showing its global leadership in urban innovation. A truly transformative change. Source: HologramHax _ _ _ 👍 Like if you find value, re-post ♻️, and follow for more interesting tech, and innovation insights

🌿 Exploring the Synergy between Biophilic/Regenerative Design and Theory U 🌱 In the quest for sustainable solutions and societal change, it's essential to draw inspiration from diverse disciplines. Today, let's delve into the intriguing connections between biophilic/regenerative design and Theory U. 🏞️ 1️⃣ Eco-System Awareness: Just as Theory U advocates for a shift from ego-system to eco-system awareness, biophilic and regenerative design prioritize our connection with nature. Through integrating natural elements and mimicking ecosystem functions, they foster harmony between humans and the environment. 2️⃣ Inclusive Approach: Both approaches emphasize inclusive leadership and stakeholder engagement. Biophilic and regenerative design seek input from diverse perspectives, recognizing that sustainable solutions require collaboration and consideration of all stakeholders' needs. 3️⃣ Systemic Change: Theory U provides a framework for systemic change, addressing root causes and promoting holistic transformation. Similarly, biophilic and regenerative design aim to redesign systems to function in harmony with nature, promoting resilience and sustainability. 4️⃣ Holistic Problem-Solving: Biophilic and regenerative design take a holistic approach to problem-solving, considering social, ecological, and economic factors. By integrating these dimensions, they create solutions that are environmentally sustainable, socially equitable, and economically viable. Incorporating these principles into design and change-making efforts can lead to innovative solutions that benefit both people and the planet. Let's continue exploring the intersections between different disciplines to drive positive change and create a more sustainable future together! 🌍💡 Habitarmonia #Sustainability #DesignThinking #TheoryU #BiophilicDesign #RegenerativeDesign #Innovation
