Navigating the Adaptive Economy

The Adaptive Economy is a new way of looking at climate change, moving past politics and corporate sustainability reports and into the arena of the disruptive business opportunities it is creating.

This book helps business owners and managers identify the risks a changing climate will have for their firm, how to constructively build resilience and make the strategic decisions that can open up new avenues, benefit reputation and navigate the wider impacts.

Ignoring the reality of climate change will not make the perils go away, from the manifold physical impacts of climate change and how they will affect businesses and communities, through to capital losses due to stranded assets and divestment. The smart money is already creating new products, services and industry sectors.

If you are ready to be a front runner in the race to create an economy where making a profit and being environmentally sustainable go hand in hand, Navigating The Adaptive Economy will point you in the right direction, with tools, data and case studies to inspire you to succeed.

"A compelling handbook for 'change preparedness'…..I feel better equipped, but a little bit terrified at the quantum of change rumbling down the expressway!"

Scott Soutar

Station Manager, Nine Entertainment Co. 

 

"Even as a business owner focusing on sustainably sourced products, I hadn’t appreciated the full impacts of climate change on the way we live and work. Navigating the Adaptive Economy is the only book I’ve seen that views climate change through a business lens, gets past token initiatives like energy efficiency and looks at opportunities and risks for products, services and markets. A must read!"
