Limburg 2030

 

Our sponsorship of and participation in the “Limburg 2030” education project in 2010 was a very inspiring experience. Initiated by five local mothers concerned for their children’s future, the idea behind the project was to connect schools and local businesses to enable them to learn from each other. Pupils and students between the ages of 14 and 22 interviewed various businesses, focusing on the question: “What are YOU doing for MY future?”

Revolution Justified

 

Revolution Justified was first published in Dutch in November 2011 by Planet Prosperity Foundation and immediately made a strong impact.

Various environmental and business organizations and some of the most influential Dutch leaders in sustainability were quick to publicly endorse the book, distributing over a thousand copies to the Dutch administration, all members of parliament, business leaders, universities and other institutions, urging them to read the book and act with greater urgency in the energy transition.
