Our CTO, Fabien, presented a lecture on “Life Cycle Thinking and the Physical Basis of a Sustainable Economy” at the Leading Change Forum 2024 in Vancouver. The event brought together young leaders in sustainability to engage in conversations and discussions towards collaborative actions for increasing climate resilience and restoring our natural environment.
In his interactive lecture, Fabien illustrated the principles underlying the chemical economy of our planet, the impact that human activity has on it, and the tradeoffs that will need to be made to achieve sustainability at the planetary scale. The lecture also introduced life cycle thinking and the role it can play in ensuring progress towards sustainability.
