Science for transformative action
is constantly evolving and it is science that represents the world as it is today and as it will be, rather than as it used to be.

Science for transformative action
is able to shed light on how different future pathways are emerging and supports companies to anticipate change and be better prepared to face a radically uncertain future.

Science for transformative action
doesn’t bias the status quo no matter how uncomfortable the picture that science paints & the scale of change that it implies

Science for transformative action
both terrifies and inspires, challenges and supports, provides constraints and opens new spaces.

Science for transformative action
is science that is forged in the fire of partnership and collaboration between scientists, private sector, civil society and change-makers.

Science for transformative action
is the science of Planethon.

2 Climate Tipping Elements: The increasing irreversibility of global change

The work by Lenton, represents the speartip of scholarship indicating that there is an increasing likelihood of irreversible earth system changes denot ...

3 Beyond ESG towards systemic risk and networked opportunities

Planethon is serious about company transformation for a more sustainable future and therefore does not offer the same approach as others when it comes to ESG. Traditional ESG approaches ignore connectivity, can’t link across problem domains such as climate change ...

4 A Planetary Boundaries approach

A scientific framework, ten years in development that identifies 9 processes that regulate the stability and resilience of the earth system. Science then identified a set of related planetary boundaries within which humanity can continue to thrive and develop for generations to come.

5 Creating biosphere stewards, Beyond doing less bad towards; recovery, regenerative systems & planet-positive solutions.

The biosphere foundation for the sustainable development goals

Agenda 2030 is the UN agreed target space for sustainable development. It is made up of 17 sustainable development goals along with 169 targets. SDGs should not be tackled piecemeal but are instead 'integrated and indivisible.' This integration therefore means that human economies and societies are embedded parts of the biosphere. The biosphere provides the critical life support systems on which prosperity and business development rest. With the biosphere as the foundation, we can see that the economy is a subsystem of society and that both the economy and society are subsystems of the biosphere. The economy should serve humanity to thrive and prosper within the capacity of the biosphere to support such flourishing.

Earth System tipping elements

There is increasing scientific support for the dramatic reality that there is an increasing likelihood of irreversible earth system changes denoted as tipping elements in the global climate system (such as the drying out of the amazon rainforest and the thawing of the arctic permafrosts). If we tip over, this could have drastic implications for ecosystems and human societies. So how do we increases our chances of avoiding crossing the tipping points linked to these tipping elements linked to the global climate system? read on the the next scientific insight that underpins our work at Planethon.

From sustainability reporting to Corporate Biosphere Stewardship

Biosphere stewardship is about moving beyond doing less bad towards being an agent for planet positive solutions. A focus on renewal and regeneration, a recognition that business causes extensive environmental impacts and possesses 'the ability to influence critical functions of the planet's climate and biosphere.
