    Nov 16 2025

    The consequences of modelling possible futures within boundary conditions of sustainability are many. Most of them are growing in importance of todays societal discourse, for instance the need to electrify traffic and get rid of fossil and nuclear fuels. But one remains poorly understood, or not understood at all, spatial planning.

  • Den Linjära Labyrinten: Varför kärnkraftens ekonomi inte kan slå sol och vind
    Nov 14 2025

    Doktor Karl-Henrik Robért menar att kärnkraft inte har någon hållbar framtid, främst på grund av dess i sig linjära och ohållbara bearbetning av radioaktiva material. Han belyser hur hela livscykeln, från resursutvinning uppströms till de oundvikliga läckage och avfallsströmmarna nedströms, leder till ständigt ökande kostnader och risker.

  • Designing Product-Service Systems and Business Models
    Nov 9 2025

    In this episode, César L. França, PhD, and co-authors show how the Framework for Strategic Sustainable Development (FSSD) connects sustainable value creation through business models. They share real-world cases co-developed with partner companies in the energy and urban lighting sectors, illustrating how the FSSD approach helps capture financial, socio-ecological, and purpose-driven returns.


    Stay tuned! — New cases are on the way! We are now applying this approach to guide the Sustainable Amazon Mobile Labs and Bioeconomy Alliance (SAMBA) Initiative, which brings together organizations from Brazil and Sweden. This collaboration focuses on valuing and integrating Amazon Rainforest ECO-Service Systems into Product design, fostering cross-border learning and regenerative business solutions.

  • The Perilous future of nuclear power
    Nov 2 2025

    An assessment of nuclear power through a lens of the absolute code for Strategic Sustainable Development, directly derived from the absolute code of laws of nature, (ABCD-in-Funnel, see previous reflections) clearly shows that this idea as an energy system has no future, remains to be dead forever.

  • The unneccessary dilemma of tax shift
    Oct 26 2025

    Some people believe that a green tax shift for the greening of industry may harm business. But on the condition that tax-shifts, or other legislative means of supporting greening, are designed in line with the FSSD it is only helpful to all organizations’ bottom lines, from the beginning and throughout the greening.

  • Population Growth: Misconceptions and Solutions
    Oct 12 2025

    Listen to the discussion about Dr Karl-Henrik Robért's reflection on population growth.


    A narrow focus on the growing human population goes with great risks of being based on two large misconceptions followed by counterproductive flaws as regards what to do: (i) The number of people on Earth will level out at some point soon in the near future, counting a few decades. (ii) And, counter-intuitive perhaps, an important driver to make this happen relatively sooner, rather than later, is to take care of one another everywhere and across nations. What really counts here is institutionalized care of the elderly, children, and girls in schools and higher education.
