Kate Raworth l How radical ideas can turn into transformative practice l Stockholm Impact/Week 2023

[@markwerwath3807]

Amazing and inspiring! Fantastic presentation!

[@richardbergson1047]

I love Kate's confidence and conviction that lends such power to these ideas but I love these ideas even more. I love the acceptance that this is how the world is and the boldness of the question - "Well, what are we going to do about it?" The very best part, though, is that she has a solution, or at least a way through that has a more than decent chance to work. Not an authoritarian directive to bludgeon every company to conform but an appeal to the humanity in all of us to use our power for the benefit of all of us and the planet. As she said, it is that simple - and not so simple....

[@frankwhite1816]

Excellent! Kate is so brilliant. Love her and her work. Kate's work will be requisite in Phase One: TRIAGE, which is actually, well already begun. As The Global Collapse becomes imminent and undebatable we'll have to adopt the Doughnut Economics system. It won't solve the Metacrisis but it should buy us some time to work out the necessary mechanics of Phase Two: TRANSITION. That is, of course, if we survive TRIAGE, which there is strong evidence that we may not. Stay focused! Fight the good fight! Get the word out! Plant a tree! Love somebody! Write your leaders! You know the drill.

[@dalebirononpoetry]

You say it so well…

[@frankwhite1816]

Thank you! :-) @@dalebirononpoetry

[@MendeMaria-ej8bf]

We need to have and defend radical ideas to solve our problems. Thank to all experts for their courageous presentations.

[@dianaknobelturner8750]

Break the Rules Kate!! Thank you for hanging in this long journey...keep on going! Amplification is coming! Trust and believe.

[@MendeMaria-ej8bf]

Great presentation. Hopefully is it going to ignite many company leaders!

[@thefantasticlaurab]

Brilliant and simply explained. Please do all you can to impact as many businesses as possible. Stand for a role in the gouvernment?

[@the1nigel]

As ever - so clear and wise - makes total sense - thanks Kate

[@villhelm]

And yet zero solutions. Just feeling based rhetoric. The issue is fractional reserve banking. That’s the cause of the need for growth. She just talks about symptoms, but never touches on the cause. Really useless talk.

[@yx7475]

Thank you Kate and Michael.

[@dalebirononpoetry]

Made my whole day, week, year… A kind of poetry.

[@goodnatureart]

Way to go Kate!

[@GlobeHackers]

I am thrilled-pleased to have happy tears-that your speakers have taken the gloves off and decided to speak truthfully regardless of the consequences and the pain it may cause some listeners. Movements like these will not be popular until they are. We must sacrifice in millions of positive ways to break the spell of neoliberal global capital and our perverse and destructive concept of growth. If we must rebuild culture within our current pathological system, so be it. And let's not forget the tens of millions of humble people that will make this transformation happen. It's not the Stars, credentialed influencers, or the gurus and yoginis that will make this happen; it will be the ordinary people with a dream willing to sacrifice everything for a healthier culture.

[@DorothyJaneDankel]

Right on, Kate Raworth! This is the real deal

[@datamongerbonny]

I guess it was about 7 years or so when I decided to go for a run by the sea listening to London School of Economics podcast. Lucky for me Kate was talking and my world perspective immediately changed. Over the years I discovered Nate, Daniel, Tristan and many others. Now when I see them all on the same stages I know we are on to something...

[@SpiritualAtheist]

We need a wealth CAP.

[@frankwhite1816]

Isn't it strange that we a minimum wage but no maximum wage? I also thought that little fact spoke volumes regarding our values as a society.

[@robertcox14]

Is that a blue lit torture chamber? Excellent presentation, but the venue doing what, exactly?

[@nickied7816]

our history shows that we don't make changes until it gets really bad, not when we are told it is going to get bad

[@packardsonic]

Only a couple of our needs are physical, we also need identity, affection, creativity, participation, leisure, freedom and understanding.

[@esmith6738]

The “inner work” companies must do for a regenerative future is still “outer work” for individual human beings. Such inner work must occur on an individual level on a global scale or our well-designed regenerative companies and communities will fail because they are incongruent with the inner life, motivations, sensibilities, aspirations of individuals. The radical transformation of our outer world must be matched by an equally radical transformation of our personal inner world or the mismatch ensures failure. Every other effort to create a regenerative future is just a work-around that avoids this most radical of problems. Until we solve this problem we will simply put a new face on our old world and its habits and congratulate ourselves for our innovation. When you put new wine into old wine skins you ruin the wine and get only sour vinegar.

[@LoyalFriend62]

This video was posted more than a year ago; and so few comments for it?.. Many of these problems could have been anticipated decades ago. Some people did, indeed, sound alarms. But the 'men and women on the street' had more important(?) things to attend to. Today, those who deliberately limit their rhetoric to 'overshoot', 'carbon emissions', industrial polluters, extractive industries, etc., should understand that they are not the heroes that some of us look up to. Let us know when you have the courage to be critical of HUMAN PROCREATION, among countless other forms of human harm to our planet. Of course, in the meantime, we will continue to work alongside you, and 'carry water' for your campaigns. But we fully understand the compromises that you are making (intentionally or otherwise). Perhaps, one day, we will see someone show more courage (and radicalism) and stress the possibility and desirability of human beings REFUSING TO BRING CHILDREN INTO THIS WORLD --until the global human population reaches a level that can be sustained WITHOUT AGRICULTURE. It seems that Kate Raworth is 'radical' enough in the eyes of some people. But I wonder if there are women who chose not to bring a child into this world who are even more qualified to criticize today's governments, companies, and communities. (I read that Kate Raworth has twins.) I am a 62-year-old man; and I am proud that I never brought a child into this world. (I am from Turkiye, a country that is guilty of building far too many dams, and using water as a weapon or a bargaining tool. My grandparents on both sides are from the Northeastern part of Turkiye that gets more rain than it needs. My country made no effort to control its human population, either. On the contrary! All governments since 1923 actively took money from the child-free to reward procreators! When Kate Raworth was 10 years old, I was advocating, in writing, for a decline in human population through natural deaths and birth control. I was 18 then. I suppose that many other people, long before I was born, recognized the need for, and the technical and social possibility of our species collectively refraining from procreation. Clearly, we did not win so far. But the struggle continues...

[@flaviot5226]

She is right the main objective of radical ideas is to transform society' TRANSFORMATION" is a Marxist OBJECTIVE In the last century, particularly since the 1970s, the capitalist system has undergone significant changes, experiencing transformations socially, economically, and politically. While capitalist societies have been the primary drivers of economic progress, technological advancements, and social development, challenges such as social inequality persist. To address these issues without transitioning into socialist or totalitarian models, potential reforms within capitalism include implementing progressive taxation, strengthening social safety nets, ensuring access to quality education, safeguarding workers' rights and fair wages, encouraging corporate social responsibility, enforcing antitrust measures, promoting inclusive economic growth, and implementing financial regulations. These reforms aim to create a more balanced and inclusive capitalist system, acknowledging that capitalism, with appropriate adjustments, remains a powerful force for positive societal development.

[@homeandabroad19kb37]

👏👏👏🙏

[@hipposeeds]

100% to so much of this. Fair BnB. These still ruin rental markets for people living in a place. The question to profit driven people is 'how much is enough'. Fundraising from family offices and HNWI the same question comes up, yes yes people planet, 'in line with' or 'risk adjusted rewards'. Impact is just a slide title. Even body shop that is shown in this presentation.

[@VladBunea]

I am happy Kate Raworth advocates for degrowth.

[@otila80]

Such a good ideas. However if you have to compete with companies who play with the rules set by capitalism its a challenge to get a marketshare. Maximum profit goal will always lead to cost effectiviness and exploitation of labour. We need a new reward system like in Copiosis which naturally pays more for companies with ethical and moral intentions.

[@cdineaglecollapsecenter4672]

Re Lush - you should not have to rely on companies to pay their taxes voluntarily - governments are supposed to enforce that. I would have been more impressed with an example of a government actually enforcing fair taxation. Otherwise great video and I think your ideas are really important.

[@jupiterthesun3217]

One of the symbols of “ economical growth” has become the ridiculous skyscrapers that even the poor countries “ aspire” to build and they’re building them ! It’s almost funny and tragic to see those glass and steel skyscrapers in very poor countries and right next to them one can see people living in slums ! It’s all because just like people, nations are trying to keep up their appearances! Like the latest visit of a dignitary from the “ developed world “ visiting India , when all along the routes that the visitor from the “developed world “ was supposed to pass through, the Indian government hid away all the signs of poverty That actually made me laugh and feel uneasy about the mindset of nations as well as that of the ordinary people who use their natural energy to have the most luxurious objects that they can’t afford but somehow acquire them and then show off their expensive luxury things to the people they don’t like ! Because we usually Don’t compete with our loved ones but we do show off our materialistic stuff to those who we don’t have any emotional connection with.

[@threecorneredvoid]

Have you guys ever heard of Karl Marx? Try a world in which we hope for more than an environmental lawyer on the Board, try a world in which workers own the means of production.

[@sociocyberneering]

Noble attempt but I hate to say fairly naive to think we can make the monetary system “just.”

[@innas.youtube]

why do they always use photos from non european people in garbage?

[@texastrustedoralsurgeon6830]

So Kate, your approach is similar to being beaten by a stick, too pushy, too accusatory. Some might say that people achieve their own level of economic power. If more is given to a person who cannot achieve it on their own, it is squandered. Also, if Costa Rica is the model society, then why are millions escaping to come to where the economic disparity is so great?

[@pootieputin2771]

Great message overall... but she needs to remove the Woke bs in order to gain a bigger audience.

[@achenarmyst2156]

Audiences that don‘t understand the sense of Woke don‘t understand Kate‘s message at all.

[@mikhail_fil]

Is this just spoken poetry? Cause it violates every law of economics, thermodynamics, psychology, human condition.

[@Knight766]

False

[@achenarmyst2156]

The „laws“ of economics themselves violate thermodynamics, psychology and the human condition.
