Stories

Storytelling plays a crucial role in how we share knowledge and learn about the world around us. Not only do stories teach us about life, they can also inspire us, fuel our imaginations and encourage us to act.

We are collecting stories of change to share and demonstrate how rapid transition has happened in the past, remove excuses for inaction and show the way ahead.

Transformative changes are called for to prevent climate breakdown and create the conditions for people to thrive together. These types of large scale, rapid changes can seem difficult to achieve but through our storytelling, we aim to show that this type of rapid transition is not only possible but has also been done before in many different ways.

The Reset Series

The Reset series explores the lessons from the global pandemic on two vital areas for rapid transition: overconsumption and unnecessary travel. Our set of downloadable short briefings focus on the period we are living through for scalable, rapid change – evidence-based hope for the future.
