Beyond the familiar: where tomorrow’s sustainability is already in motion
New horizons: exploring the untold frontiers of sustainability
Shaken Not Burned
Climate, society, sustainability literacy and transforming our world
Welcome to another week of Shaken Not Burned!
Still on a break but with big plans ahead. But these frontiers couldn’t wait.
Giulia's busy unpacking her life in Italy, and Felicia is master‑planning the roadmap for Season 5. So while we’re officially off-air, we wanted to share something special: a curated shortlist of Shaken Not Burned episodes exploring emerging frontiers in sustainability — including climate litigation, biodiversity markets, the materials transformation, and more.
The sustainability landscape is shifting. The low-hanging fruit has largely been picked; now we’re chasing the unknown, the systemic, the legally binding, the market-based and the material. From courtrooms to creators, these new arenas might just hold the keys to the next wave of impact.
Here are a few episodes worth your attention (links below):
What is climate litigation? With Planet Law Lab — Where courts become battlegrounds for climate justice, forcing governments and corporations to reckon with their carbon footprints. We sit down with Zaneta Sedilekova and unpack landmark cases like Saúl Luciano Lliuya vs RWE, and why legal pressure might be one of the most effective deterrents—and accelerants—for systemic change.
The rise of biodiversity markets with Bloom Labs — A deep dive into how biodiversity credits are being designed, the ethical tightropes they walk, and whether they can evolve beyond carbon copycat markets into genuine nature‑positive finance.
Other Frontiers We’ve Explored
Concrete change: why decarbonising cement is key — Because one of the world’s most ubiquitous materials carries one of the heaviest carbon burdens—and innovators are forcing change at scale.
Growing clean agriculture with Agronomics — How cellular agriculture, fermentation and precision biomanufacturing could remake our food systems with lower emissions, greater resilience, and fewer ethical compromises
These episodes take us beyond familiar terrain—where innovation, justice, finance, and systems overlap to define what sustainability looks like in an unsettled future.
What’s next?
We’re on a short pause, but the momentum is building. When Season 5 returns, expect deeper dives, sharper analysis, and fresh frameworks—from materials to markets, ethics to ecology. Until then, feel free to circle back through these forward-looking conversations.
Stay curious. Stay ready. Change is brewing — nd we can’t wait to share it with you.
