Biosphere Economics

Think
and act
in the planetary age

Biosphere Economics helps organizations understand the era that is opening, renew their frameworks, and orient their strategic decisions.

The Biosphere

The Biosphere is
the living system
every economy depends on.

Its destabilization is the central systemic risk of the 21st century.

Homo Biospheris

One species can
change the trajectory
of the Biosphere.

Seven of the nine planetary boundaries have already been crossed. Homo sapiens needs to learn to become Homo biospheris.

Biosphere Economics

The economy is the
metabolism
of humanity.

Today, this metabolism exceeds planetary limits. The biospheric economy aims to transform economic activity into functions in service of the Biosphere.

Energy Transition

Energy lies
at the heart
of planetary balances.

The energy transition makes systems more uncertain and more interdependent. With our partner Artelys, we help energy actors make decisions in this complexity.

AI & Transition

AI transforms
our capacity
for action.

It cannot be left to its most dangerous uses. We help organizations orient it toward humanity, the living world, and the planetary age.

Planetary Lab

The planetary age
calls for new
concepts.

The Planetary Lab explores the narratives, tools and frameworks of thought needed to become planetary.

Humanity must choose : drifting through turbulence or becoming fully planetary.

The Biosphere

The entirety of life on Earth forms a single system: the Biosphere.

The Biosphere is a thin, fragile envelope stretching from the ocean floor to the lower atmosphere. Built over 3.8 billion years of evolution, it has protected every living thing that has ever existed. This system is now under threat. Reconciling the economy with the biosphere is the ultimate challenge of our time.

02 IMAGINE

Strategic Seminars

Our seminars are designed for leadership teams that need to regain perspective, rebuild a shared vision and turn uncertainty into strategic capacity in the planetary age.

Four tensions leaders experience and to which we respond.To better assess the contribution of our seminars.

Strategic Context

Four headwinds turned into strategic forces.

The ecological transition adds to the challenges organizations already face. The Biosphere Economics seminars offer leaders:

a deep understanding of the forces at play in the planetary era

a renewed identity through a regenerative trajectory, in service of a larger purpose

That clear bearing turns headwinds into strategic forces.

Headwind

Shifting regulations, geopolitical volatility, planning cycles obsolete before they start.

Strategic force

In uncertain times, the real strategic edge is to read the era more clearly and to know the organization better. The planetary age framework clarifies deep identity: who you are, what you serve, where you are headed. That clarity keeps the course steady when everything around is shifting.

  • 5 to 30 participants
  • 1 or 2 days, depending on your needs
  • French or English
  • Tailored to your sector and stage of transition
  • Each seminar can be taken independently
  • At your premises or at an inspiring venue

03 Transform

Planetary Trajectory

For small or large organizations willing to go further. An engagement built around your specific context to design and implement a transformation and impact strategy, robust in the planetary age and effective over time.

We work with experts and strategic partners from many fields to co-design with your teams tailor-made transformation processes adapted to your unique situation: corporate history, values, advancement level on regeneration, and economic context. From vision to reality.
