Getting ready for Berlin tomorrow, after a flat-out weekend, working, working. Past week has included meetings with people like Jasmine Whitbread at Save the Children, Screw Business as Usual event on 14th (with people like Richard Branson, Jamie Oliver, Ben Cohen, John Bird and Jochen Zeitz), Jim Woods (Green Mondays) and Professor Bob Eccles of Harvard Business School, speaking at events organised by Sustainable Business (reporting) and GreenBiz/SustainAbility (VERGE), huge efforts on the Breakthrough Capitalism Forum front, and endless writing tasks (International Herald Tribune, Guardian etc). 

Fascinating session with Peter Davidson on use of titanium dioxide aerosols in the stratosphere to slow the progress of global warming--the subject of my next Guardian Sustainable Business blog. 

Extraordinarily, the 16th marked the seventh anniversary of my working with Sam, first at SustainAbility, then at Volans. Some would say it had gone in a flash, but it seems to me (in a good way) to have been something of an eternity. We are all tired and looking forward to being on the other side of May, though June looks just as busy.
