Regenerative work takes patience, perseverance and commitment ... it also takes empathy (the ability to understand the thinking, emotions, experiences and ways of being of those we seek to serve and bring on the path of sustainability and regeneration - it takes being able to creatively use the language of those people and sectors of industry and society we, as regenerative change makers, are aiming to help transform for their own benefit and all life). Agression, forcing, coercion, guilting do not work in the long run, any many times in the short run either. ✊ . A picture taken during a waste reduction program we designed, developed and now implementing to help restaurants reduce and ideally eliminate waste (highly polluting, in nature persisting waste) towards a #zerowaste future. We find that some restaurants are already employing #wastereduction practices, and we are learning a lot about their needs to transition further. All we trained so far were thrilled about the positive ramifications of the custom solutions we proposed to them for their business, our shared environment and society, and our common future. We are systems' thinkers at #aboutandforsustainability and #reearth and we know each individual, business, government, nonprofit and academic institution we serve, needs solutions that work for them (we also make them work for all life to benefit from). We understand it takes time and apply time and culture appropriate approaches 🌱 . We think local and act #local! We think global and act #global! Our approaches to create change through education, training, awareness campaigns, and boots on the ground consulting and implementation will be shared this year ✌ . Interested on how you can create this type of work for your self and your business? Drop us a line 💬 . Work that regenerates and brings sustainability to our shared environment, community and future is fulfilling, rewarding and possible 😉 .
