Great article Win, and excellent work by Richard and his team. I saw this when he first presented the material at a conference in 2018 and it was certainly compelling then and remains so now. Thank you for the article and for sharing.

Hi Bob, thank you for your comment. Personally, in my opinion, Land8 is a platform to share ideas, including expanding our minds into possibly new ways of thinking every now and then. I agree with you on many of the points you made above. It is certainly an insurmountable task to be able to resolve it. Therefore, these days, with the topic of climate change being more prevalent now than ever and the irreversibility of it- it is not in thinking that you can save the world but what you can do in your own vicinity that won’t be detrimental to the planet. Hopefully the article does the job of allowing those in the profession to think about how our skills can be applied in the humanitarian crisis situations.
