The link between cycling (sports), corporate sustainability and self-improvement sometimes surprises readers I meet in the wild (in London next week, feel free to reach out for a coffee!). However, without discipline no sustainability, it requires character building and what better way to build this then to go out for a run or a cycle ;) Also, much of what sustainability practitioners do is change management. Perseverance is a handy quality, sustainability is almost like an endurance sport! This week among others two articles on sustainability and data, new standards for sustainable financing, simple ways to boost your willpower, and a newsletter favorite Patagonia coming up with a refurbishment scheme. Thanks! If you enjoy ✨ my newsletter, please share it via Twitter, or by Facebook. 👍🏻
