Regeneration
Could regeneration be the new sustainability? Not that sustainable development will disappear (the SDGs run until 2030). But sustainability as an idea – surviving, enduring – has always been a bit uninspiring. Not to mention its frequent misuse by business and government (‘sustainable economic growth’ is a favourite). In contrast, regeneration is a much more exciting idea. It’s not new. There have been vocal advocates for years, along with the flourishing and thriveability movements. The difference now is we’re starting to see science-based applications emerging like regenerative agriculture and restorative design.
