We have even less approaches that holistically enable the regeneration of these systems. This is the state of the art.” SUSTAINABLE: Limiting the damage caused.

- 28. We are facedwith increasingly unques- tionable evidence of the impact that human activity and the built environ- ment has on the environment. Label- ling our current era as anthropogenic is giving a sense of urgency to addressing a new ‘sustainability beyond sustain- ability’ The built environment is currently a significant contributor to wider and global sustainable impacts, but can be a significant contributor to sustain- ability success. However, as Naomi Klein commented in This Changes Everything, “there are no non-radical solutions available to us” and as Martin Brown noted in FutuREstorative “we no longer have the luxury of being less bad” Working Group One sets the scene for other RESTORE working groups and asks three questions: 1. What is the state of the art for Regenerative Sustainability? 2. Moving beyond the state of the art: Where do we want to be? 3. How do we get there, What are the ‘triggers’?
