Connecting Communities of Practice on Sustainable Production & Consumption Jeffrey Barber Copenhagen Climate Exchange 5 December 2009

How to transform the fossil-fuel dependent industrial-consumer economy?

Living Planet Report, WWF (2004) Billion global ha Global footprint keeps growing

Policy interdependencies

Climate change Biodiversity loss Air & water pollution Health threats Urban sprawl Waste-pollution-depletion Sustainability strategies & initiatives Waste-pollution-depletion Production/consumption cycle

What drives the cycle? Distribution – product pricing, marketing/ advertising, packaging, transport, sales/trade Investment of resources (money, natural, labor, knowledge) Values – Root priorities which ultimately shape all other decisions

Production/consumption cycle Production Consumption Distribution Investment Values

Lifecycle assessment

Emisssions Waste Inequities Consumption Distribution Production Investment Values

Policy perspectives

Production/consumption sectors generating GHG emissions

Policies and practices

…and change the production/consumption cycle in each sector Transport Automobiles

Emission sources from automobile production & consumption Automobiles

Changing the system of production and consumption

Policies and practices

Communities of Practice A group that tends to evolve around an issue with its own unique culture. It has its own language (jargon and acronyms), conferences, friendships and journals. They work at different scales from the local level to the national to the international.

Production-based practices: Sustainable manufacturing Competitiveness & profitability Green product portfolio Low-carbon products Carbon offsetting Lifecycle approach Emissions reduction Sustainable supply chain management Remanufacturing

Policies and practices

Consumption-based practices and communities Key Terms: Simplicity Simple living Downshifting Frugality Sufficiency Quality of life

Communities of practice Concepts and principles Literature (key books, papers) Skills, training, education Terminology or jargon Gatherings (conferences, study groups) Goals or aims Saints and heroes Personal friendships Collective history

There is the footprint we leave And there are the steps we take forward.
