Un dato è incontrovertibile: le risorse della terra sono limitate. Se le pratiche attuali continueranno, il forte incremento demografico, abbinato al boom della domanda di beni e servizi, le sfrutterà fino al punto di rottura. a peggiorare le cose, l’attuale modello di crescita lineare considera l’impatto dello spreco come una questione che «qualcun altro» dovrà risolvere – e nel frattempo la capacità del pianeta di assorbire e smaltire i rifiuti diminuisce ogni anno. È evidente che bisogna fare qualcosa. Non si tratta soltanto di reinserire nel ciclo produttivo gli sprechi intesi nel senso tradizionale di rifiuti, ma anche di porre rimedio all’enorme sottoutilizzazione di ris...
Une chose est sûre et certaine : les fondements de l'économie mondiale vacillent. Investisseurs, entreprises et pouvoirs publics se voient contraints de revoir leur approche à la lumière de l'inflation galopante, d'une crise climatique apparemment incessante et du vieillissement de la population. Ils sont en outre confrontés au plus fort endettement de tous les temps en période de paix, à une innovation disruptive et aux effets de la multiglobalisation.

Eén ding is zeker: de wereldeconomie staat op losse schroeven. Beleggers, bedrijven en overheden moeten hun aanpak herdenken in het licht van gierende inflatie, de voortdurende klimaatcrisis en een vergrijzende bevolking. Daarnaast krijgen ze af te rekenen met de hoogste schuldenberg ooit in vredestijd, disruptieve innovatie en de effecten van multiglobalisering.

In welke sectoren vallen de meeste opp...
