Terra Nova Earth Talks- Te Ao Earth Week - Living a time of climate change with Anake Goodall

Published: 03/7/2024 9:00 a.m.

In this talk, Dr. Anake Goodall bravely voices his discomfort, tension, and the destabilising feelings that we all sense, and perhaps don’t talk enough about, when it comes to living a time of climate change. A long-time investor in the green economy of New Zealand who has held various executive roles and advisory to government and iwi, Anake’s wisdom around the barriers and opportunities to change runs deep. He speaks here to the current level of cynicism and backward thinking in politics that hinders us from real progress and pits people against one another. And he asks us to lean into the fact that the future will require us to face difficulty and have difficult conversations.

We connected with OrbViz, an Ōtautahi Christchurch business with global reach, that tackles this problem. They are helping governments, companies, and non-profits bring reporting to life in a dynamic way that enables more people to be engaged in reporting and decision making.


Terra Nova Earth Talks- Te Ao Earth Week - Cheryl Doig, Futurist and International Advocate for Change.

Published: 19/6/2024 9:00 a.m.

Feeling like everything ahead is doom and gloom? It can easily spiral that way without a different lens. We are very fortunate to work with the eminent leader Cheryl Doig. As a professional futurist and international advocate for social and environmental change, she provides a lens that helps puts leaders in an optimal state of mind in preparation for an uncertain future. In this talk, she challenges us to consider how we keep all time - past, present and future - in mind as we evaluate and assess for decision making. She asks questions that prompt us to think about our level of hope about the future and to develop a behaviour mindset that enables transformational thinking.
