  1. A quotation from Desmond Tutu

    Do your little bit of good where you are; it’s those little bits of good put together that overwhelm the world.

  2. "Fairphone’s progress on core impact strategies, page 21.
    Under the header "Levels of circularity: 8 R’s" are 3 shaded areas pointing to "KPI 2", "KPI 3", then "KPI 3 + 4". A banded arrow along the left bridges these areas, pointing upward. Its label is "Order of Priority" from "Low" to "High".

    These point to KPI 2.
    Refuse: prevent raw materials use.
    Rethink: redesign product in view of circularity.

    These point to KPI 3.
    Reduce: decrease raw materials use.
    Repair: maintain and repair product.
    Refurbish: revive product.
    Remanufacture: make new product from second hand.
    Repurpose: re-use product but with other function.

    This points to KPI 3 + 4.
    Recycle: salvage material streams with highest possible value.

  3. A quotation from Joseph Joubert

    Imitate time. It destroys slowly. It undermines, wears, loosens, separates. It does not uproot.
     
    [Imitez le temps: il détruit tout avec lenteur; il mine, il use, il déracine, il détache, et n’arrache pas.]

    Joseph Joubert (1754-1824) French moralist, philosopher, essayist, poet
    Pensées [Thoughts], ch. 14 “Des Gouvernements [On Governments],” ¶ 31 (1793; 1850 ed.) [tr. Attwell (1896), ¶ 199]
