From the Ted Talk by Amy Powney: How to fix fashion and protect the planet
Unscramble the Blue Letters
But only once I’d implemented this -- and it took a long time to do it, and we were very proud -- but what I also realized is that we just made a better version of an enxistig system which was breokn. It's the best of, but it's still take, make, use and lose.
And so now I relieazd we have to add another link to that supply cahin and join it all together and create a circular system. And by that I mean so many things. But for an example, if we're going to cut a tree down and we replace it, could the rnclameepet add more value back to the forest? What about if regenerative and organic farming practices could become the new normal, and each picker’s leivs nourished along with the soil itself? And then new links could be added for every aspect of the business. What if we looked at profit and loss, for instance? What if we turn that into pay it forward? What if we reimagine the cnpecot of success?

But only once I’d implemented this -- and it took a long time to do it, and we were very proud -- but what I also realized is that we just made a better version of an existing system which was broken. It's the best of, but it's still take, make, use and lose.
And so now I realized we have to add another link to that supply chain and join it all together and create a circular system. And by that I mean so many things. But for an example, if we're going to cut a tree down and we replace it, could the replacement add more value back to the forest? What about if regenerative and organic farming practices could become the new normal, and each picker’s lives nourished along with the soil itself? And then new links could be added for every aspect of the business. What if we looked at profit and loss, for instance? What if we turn that into pay it forward? What if we reimagine the concept of success?
