Inflection

    If you are interested in system change, it helps to pay attention to inflection points. These are symbolic moments when key thresholds are reached. For example, on Christmas Day in 2009, Amazon customers bought more e-books than printed books. More recently, we have seen significant sustainability inflection points. In July 2020, Tesla became the world’s most valuable carmaker, despite accounting for less than 1% of all cars sold. And in October 2020, the market capitalisation of NextEra, the world’s largest generator of wind and solar power, eclipsed the oil giant ExxonMobil. For the times they are a’changin’ (thanks Bob!).
