Dr. Gunter Pauli is challenging the green movement he has been so much a part of to do better, to do more. He is the entrepreneur who launched Ecover; those products are probably in many of your homes. He built the largest ecologically-sound factory in the world. His participation in the Club of Rome and the founding of Zero Emissions Research Institute (ZERI) has made an immense contribution to sustainability both in terms of research, public awareness and articulating a visionary direction. He has dedicated himself to teaching and the hands-on implementation of projects that have brought healthy environments, good nutrition, health care and jobs in sustainable commerce to a myriad of places in the world.

The Blue Economy 3.0: The Marriage of Science, Innovation and Entrepreneurship Creates a New Business Model That Transforms Society

The Blue Economy cites a new business model in China where novel paper production turns crushed rocks, including mining waste that has piled up over centuries into sheets for printing, writing and packaging without the use of water, without cutting down a tree, and recyclable forever. It details how thistles, considered a weed, is turned into a plastic, a lubricant and a herbicide converting an old petrochemical plant into a biorefinery.

We can change the role of plastics in our societies. We can redesign the ways we produce and consume plastics. The change begins with adding value. Plastic waste can be transformed into energy and cleaning up plastic pollution can lift millions out of poverty. At the same time, we can begin cleaning up the oceans of the microparticles that we can hardly see but that are everywhere. Today plastic is a problem. Plastic can be a solution too. This book presents a groundbreaking and strong business model that is supported by the power of nature.

"Zero emissions" has become a definitive term in the debate on sustainable development in the last few years. This radical book focuses on a world where the waste for one process can become the raw material for another – a cascade of materials once thought worthless supporting new products, new processes and new wealth – as industries that were previously considered unrelated cluster together. A world where new business will be created on an unprecedented scale. This is not just a theory: projects in the agro-industries, based on integrated biosystems, are already up and running in countries as diverse as Fiji, Namibia and Colombia and are fully described in the book, as is the lead given by Japan in terms of the adoption of the concept. In UpSizing, Gunter Pauli, founder of the Zero Emissions Research Initiative (ZERI), examines how the adoption of the Zero Emissions concept not only radically reduces pollution and waste but can contribute significantly to the generation of income and jobs – specifically for those that need them most: the rural poor in less developed countries.

UpSizing: The Road to Zero Emissions: More Jobs, More Income and No Pollution

The 21 fairy tales in Gunter Pauli's Out of the Box prepare companies, executives and their teams to be the pioneering agents of transformation, as well as promising to be both fun and profitable. Each concept is clarified with a concrete, brief business case. Some are successes, some failures. Examples are based on first-hand experiences from 20 different companies, some large multinationals, some small niche players, some venture capital-funded innovation companies operating in Europe, North and South America, Asia and Africa. Creativity and innovation are not the exclusive domain of the North and the multinational corporation; it also is happening in the Southern Hemisphere. Those executives who embrace these concepts of creativity, innovation and leadership will bring business to the forefront of society, responding to people's requirements in co-evolution with nature, strengthening culture and tradition, as well as creating a wonderful platform upon which entrepreneurs will thrive, wherever they are in the world.

En tiempos de zozobra economica, cuando los expertos parecen incapaces de ofrecer otras soluciones que no sean parches o recetas con los mismos modelos, apenas disimulados, que han causado la crisis global, la propuesta de Gunter Pauli desprende el aroma de lo revolucionario y lo posible a la vez. Revolucionario, porque va mas alla de dos modelos que se han revelado ineficaces: la economia financiera, basada en el credito y la deuda, y la «economia verde», que trata de preservar el medio ambiente a costa de grandes inversiones que la vuelven inviable. La «economia azul» parte de una premisa sencilla: servirse del conocimiento acumulado durante millones de anos por la naturaleza para alcanzar cada vez mayores niveles de eficacia, respetando el medio y creando riqueza, y traducir esa logica del ecosistema al mundo empresarial. / Dr. Gunter Pauli is an entrepreneur who launched Ecover.
