Professional Consultant, Speaker & Writer
I work as a professional consultant, advising forward looking businesses, their investors and other stakeholders. I also work as a professional speaker and writer, respectively with events organisers and publishers.
My clients are people and organisations who are developing their own business solutions to the challenges of “climate change” and of “living on one planet”. In addition to securing a profitable future for themselves, their innovation improves general prosperity, by rebasing our economy on the principles and practice of “sustainable consumption and production”. My clients include event organisers and publishers who need informed presentations and copy on these topics.
My role is to guide my clients through the maze of challenge, opportunity, incomplete science, conflicting opinion and the cascade of jargon terms e.g. “carbon footprint”, as they apply their business sense to satisfying their customers and shareholders, audiences and readers – and, through good governance, their stakeholders.
For generic examples of my work to reduce the carbon footprint and total environmental footprint of clients’ operations, by rethinking process and supply systems and by capturing the residual value in by-products, see link.

At the heart of my work, is the “profit and planet” question:
How, profitably, to satisfy the needs and aspirations of customers, consumers and shareholders today - in ways which maintain our planet’s resources and stability systems - to secure a continuing basis for business opportunity and general prosperity tomorrow?

The practical answers differ for each client, but they all recognise that the capital base upon which our economy and its constituent businesses depend, has a natural component, our planet’s resources and stability systems. Reinvesting in this “natural capital”, is good business sense, no less than is reinvesting in financial capital.
