Green vs. Sustainability
Green
• Detail focused
• Tactical
• Ecological
• Focus on being less “bad”
• Lacks common definition of success
Sustainability
• Whole systems focus
• Strategic
• Triple bottom line
• Focus on aligning with nature’s cyclical processes
• Capable of defining success

The Character of Environmental Problems has changed:
Local Global
Few Large Sources Diffuse
Short Time Delay Long Time Delay
Low Complexity High Complexity

A Systems Perspective Emphasizes:
• Focusing "upstream"
• Principles rather than details
• Shared framework and a common language
• Unalterable system conditions

• Matter and energy do not disappear
• Matter and energy tend to disperse
• Value of matter is in its concentration and structure
• Photosynthesis is principal process by which net order is produced

Earth as a System
Open System
with respect to
energy
Closed System
with respect to
matter
Sustainability is
about the ability of
these cycles to run
forever.
1) Nothing disappears
2) Everything disperses
Slow geological
cycles - materials
from the Earth’s
crust
“Photosynthesis pays
the bills”

How we influence cycles
Relatively large flows

Sustainability defined: The four System Conditions
Concentrations of substances
extracted from the earth's crust
Concentrations of substances
produced by society
Degradation by physical means
and, in that society, people are not
subject to
Conditions that systematically
undermine their capacity to meet their
needs.
In a sustainable society, nature is not subject to systematically increasing:

What is the purpose of business?
• “Business that focuses just on money doesn’t invest in
the future -- in its employees, new ideas, markets or
products -- and won’t be around for long. Any successful
business is part of society, and exists to meet society’s
needs.”
– Sir John Browne, Group Chief Executive, B.P.

How can a business be socially sustainable?
Start with the basics:
• The Golden Rule: “Do unto others as you would have them do
unto you”.
• Make decisions with: Participation, Transparency,
Accountability, Honesty.

Specific opportunities
We will never learn to take care of nature until we learn to take care of each other.

Four System Conditions
In a sustainable society, nature is not subject to systematically increasing…
1. … concentrations of substances extracted from the earth’s crust;

2. … concentrations of substances produced by society;
3. … degradation by physical means;
and in that society,
4. people are not subject to conditions that systematicallyundermine their capacity to meet their needs .

Sustainability Strategies
• Dematerialize: Shift business model from matter to service
• Favor the substitution of biological materials where possible
• Radically increase efficiency
• Design closed-loop systems
• Invest in ecosystem infrastructure

• Right Direction: Are we taking measures that lead
toward overall success?
• Does it move toward eliminating a violation?
• Are tradeoffs involved?

Direct Action Questions
• Flexible Platform: Are we taking measures that can be further developed as future options become clearer?
• Are future sustainability options still available or is this a dead end?
• Is the sunk cost of this option a barrier to switching later?
• Key question: What Next?

“A more creative methodology than
to trying to estimate if the impacts
outweigh the benefit is to start the
planning process from a point where
the trade-offs don’t exist.”

Improve?
Systematically
reduces dependence
on energy derived
from a mixture of
nuclear (i.e.
uranium) and fossil
fuels (i.e. carbon,
sulfur, mercury).
Systematically
reduces
concentrations of
persistent
compounds for
refining uranium and
fossil fuels.
Also, nuclear waste
is created as a
product of nuclear
energy production.
Reduce
encroachment on
land for new power
infrastructure, and
mining of uranium
and fossil fuels.
Improves energy
efficiency that
reduces need for
extra power plants
and capital costs.
Trade-off?
Systematically
increases flow of
mercury if light
bulbs not disposed of
properly.
Increase
encroachment on
land for mining
mercury.
Economic barrier to
some people because
CFL lights are more
expensive.
IKEA Analysis
1. Does the decision move toward sustainability?

IKEA Analysis
– Seek vendors with lowest mercury content
– Set up mercury recycling program
– Use strong market presence to educate public on CFL benefits,
create higher demand
2. Does this initiative provide a stepping-stone
toward sustainability?
– Life cycle costs are lower with CFL
– Costs come down as volume increases
3. Does this initiative provide a sufficient return to seed
future investments?

IKEA Example
• Created criteria that exceeded EU eco-labelling scheme
• Found Chinese producer that was competitive on price,
performance, and exceeded efficiency and mercury
requirements.
• Prices cuts for 11W CFLs
• Cooperation with Swedish NGO on education campaign on
energy (and cost) savings.
• Advertise in all major newspapers a free give-away of CFLs for two week period (600,000 were given away)
• Cooperation with Swedish NGO on review of manufacturing
practices. Documented on video and made available in stores
• Free take-back of all mercury containing light sources.
• Contracted recycler to capture mercury where 98 to 99
percent is recovered.

Lessons Learned
• Importance of a solid framework - shared mental model
• Key to success – Backcasting from a vision of a fully sustainable system
• Collaboration – built on consensus, no “enemies”
• Patience - Natural Step, not Natural Leap
