We propose an assessment on the basis of 12 precise, objective criteria aligned with Kate Raworth’s Donut Economics indicators and with the Planetary Boundaries from the Stockholm Resistance Centre. These are measurable for your company and compared to known averages in various sectors. To identify your position in relation to planetary ceilings and floors on the one hand, and compared to the averages in your sector on the other.
