Regenerative Sustainability: Hope is connected to action

Here at Royal Roads, we are committed to inspiring people with the courage to transform the world. For us, hope is connected to action — and that action is not just about reducing harm.

Of course, we must reduce harm. But what if we took the idea of sustainability one step further? What if we actively contributed to the health of the planet?

In my video this week, I had a wonderful talk about regenerative sustainability with Prof. Ann Dale, director of the School of Environment and Sustainability.

She asked me to imagine that almost every action I took could regenerate the environment. 

It’s a concept that I really believe can help us focus on taking action that matters. We speak about hope, the interconnectedness  between human and environmental well-being, and how we can powerfully influence not only our ecosystems, but also our societies.
