Ashoka insight
If everyone lived like we do, if everyone consumed and polluted like we do, we would need three planets. So we need one planet living; living within the natural limits. The idea behind our One Planet Living framework is to try and make sustainability simple to understand and to give people guidance for co-creating around it. It consists of 10 principles and a process where we engage decision-makers and stakeholders to co-create an implementation plan.
