What IS blog about<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Future orientation<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

PLANET – PEOPLE – PROSPERITY<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this blog, different alternative future narratives are presented. The purpose is to wake people up to think about their actions and their effects beyond the next weekend.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the second year in a row, the world was no longer making progress on the UN SDGs in 2021. The pandemic and other crises have clearly been major setbacks for sustainable development.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The recovery so far has been unequal, and it remains very uncertain. During the pandemic, rich countries managed to support emergency and recovery expenditures through debt, which helped avoid short-term meltdowns, but which are likely to remain visible on balance sheets for future generations to deal with.

We are witnessing a much-needed shift towards a new, which will reboot markets around the world in the near years as we transit from the outdated single bottom-line of GDP-growth<\/em> and profit<\/em> to the quadruple bottom-line: people, planet, purpose<\/em> and prosperity<\/em>.
Sustainable<\/em> is the new profitable<\/em>. Purpose<\/em> is the new product<\/em>.<\/p>The future is not something that just happens to us \u2013 it\u2019s something we create. (by Gerd Leonhard)<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

I’m lucky, I’m Finnish, one of less than six million on earth.  Based on several international measurements and rankings, we have a well-functioning society and that’s why we are also among the happiest. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Fortunately, I have been able to take advantage of the opportunities in my home country, Finland, also in continuous study and learning.\u00a0 My working career has been a little different from the norm, so it is better described by ”flow” than ”career”.\u00a0 I myself have summarized it as being a ”humane technocrat”.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I am most proud of the periods when I got to work and be with young people.  Those opportunities have come in different circumstances and environments.  Volunteering and working in civic organizations has been rewarding.  I have worked for a long time in technology companies in different roles, but even then I always put people first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’ve always been lively and curious, I’ll always stay on the same path. Now when I have officially retired from everyday working life, my intention is to spend more and more of my time researching and writing about sustainable society<\/em> – what it is and how to implement it.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":0,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"neve_meta_sidebar":"full-width","neve_meta_container":"","neve_meta_enable_content_width":"on","neve_meta_content_width":100,"neve_meta_title_alignment":"","neve_meta_author_avatar":"","neve_post_elements_order":"","neve_meta_disable_header":"","neve_meta_disable_footer":"on","neve_meta_disable_title":"off","_themeisle_gutenberg_block_has_review":false,"_ti_tpc_template_sync":false,"_ti_tpc_template_id":"lk14g9s4to6urekitery","footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-109","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/intervallum.fi\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/109","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/intervallum.fi\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/intervallum.fi\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/intervallum.fi\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/intervallum.fi\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=109"}],"version-history":[{"count":44,"href":"https:\/\/intervallum.fi\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/109\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":385,"href":"https:\/\/intervallum.fi\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/pages\/109\/revisions\/385"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/intervallum.fi\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=109"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
