Circular business model.  | Our aim is mobility with zero cost to the planet – our formal Purpose Statement is &#39;To pursue, systematically, the elimination of the environmental impact of personal transport.&#39;

🔹Elimination rather than reduction has to be our end goal because less unsustainable is still not sustainable.

🔹Systematically because we won’t get there overnight, so we must ensure that every step takes us towards that end goal.

A crew from Wxve visited us at our HQ in Wales today – to create a film series for Adrian Flux , exploring hydrogen vehicles – and we’re the first to be covered. 🎬 Adrian Flux are renowned for insuring specialist cars; for now, hydrogen is that — but we know hydrogen infrastructure and vehicle use is set to grow. 🚗💧 #HydrogenCars #FCEV #Fuelcell #CircularBusiness #SustainableTransport #ULEZ

People are very ready to embrace a model that removes the cost of maintenance, depreciation and inbuilt obsolescence of their vehicles, and rolls the cost of fuel, insurance and tax into one monthly subscription fee. ♾️ It also means that we build efficient, long lasting, cheaper-to-run cars that unlock revenue streams – flipping sustainability from a cost into a source of competitive advantage.

⛽️💧Riversimple founder Hugo Spowers MBE refuelled at Air Products hydrogen station in Heathrow last week, on the way back to Wales after the Blue Earth Hydrogen Summit in London. Filling our hydrogen car takes a few minutes. Hydrogen is considered as safe or safer than petrol by authorities in the UK and the US, and increasingly, is being made with renewables. We look forward to seeing hydrogen pumps appearing on more forecourts – alongside battery charging stands… Read more about why we chose H2 👉 https://lnkd.in/ePU9xDzG #GreenHydrogen #HydrogenCars #H2 #EVs #HydrogenInfrastrusture

I drove back to Wales on Friday, via a refuel at Heathrow, from the wonderful Blue Earth Summit with one big idea resonating in my mind. Economist Ralph Chami pointed out that the market value of living things is a new concept to economics. Traditionally, when economists talk about the value of living things, they actually mean value-in-death. The tree when you've felled it for wood. The cow when you've killed it for meat. Until we fell it or kill it, traditional economics doesn't recognise any value in it. In hindsight a blinding glimpse of the obvious! Ralph Chami is not only Assistant Director at the IMF but is also founder of Blue Green Future . This foundation has calculated the value-in-life of a great whale as $2,000,000 – in carbon sequestration, impact on fisheries and tourism – but only $40,000 once dead – in blubber, oil and whale bone. Here is an economist talking about the real, tangible market value of living things in life. This is not to ignore the enormous intrinsic value of all living things that any sane person will intuit – but it is important in getting political and commercial interests to take biodiversity seriously. Unfortunately, rubber tyres play a direct role in the decline in ocean health, its ability to sequester carbon and the future of whales – their nutrition, health, fertility and thus numbers. Microplastics reduce the population of phytoplankton that feed the whales (so abundant that they’re responsible for half the planet's limestone!), the Coccolithophores so beloved of the late great Dr. Stephan Harding. We generate more than 500,000 tonnes of tyre particulates in Europe each year, much of which ends up in our oceans – 78% of the microplastics entering oceans are from tyres. These emissions are pro rata to vehicle mass, which is why we are working so hard to keep our cars as light as possible. Stephan contributed so much to our understanding of the intrinsic value of all living things and the sheer scale of carbon uptake that dwarfs any technofix that we can dream up – we've just got to get out of the way. We must recognise both economic value and intrinsic value. That is why we’ve designed our Future Guardian governance model to recognise and give voice to each core stakeholder, including the environment, that create the conditions for Riversimple to thrive ... as John Muir said, “When we try to pick out anything by itself, we find it hitched to everything else in the universe.” Blue Earth was a 3 day extravaganza that brought together a great bunch of people really doing something – amongst them many Riversimple investors, friends and supporters.

“I absolutely believe business is a force for good.” ‘Right on’ 〓〓 ✌️John Brown ... Hugo Spowers MBE Spowers connected with the dynamic Cornwall Chamber Of Commerce CEO at Blue Earth Summit yesterday, who understands the power business has in shaping a regenerative economy. As well as the obvious attraction, the Rasa, our pioneering corporate governance model is of great interest to John, and others – we’ve spoken to many people over the last couple of days who really get how important, and possible, it is to be thriving businesses and reduce impact on our environment and communities. Meeting switched on, forward thinking people like John is incredibly encouraging. We need more business leaders at a regional and national level like this. 💫 #ESG #Hydrogen #RegenerativeEconomy #CircularEcconomy #Hydrogencars

Blue Earth Summit kicked off in Mother in Shoreditch last night – many thanks for a stimulating evening 🌃🌍 This summit, running in Woolwich from today until Friday, is connecting a diverse range of ‘thought-leaders and trailblazers’ with one goal – to work together to implement solutions that regenerate our natural world. We’ll be amongst thousands of others working in a variety of sectors, and connecting with investors and potential partners who are looking for powerful solutions to humanity’s biggest challenges. We appreciate the sense of urgency and pragmatism here; and we’re already finding sparks and connections – our hydrogen electric cars and circular business model are piquing interest. We’re very pleased to be a BE100 business, an index that recognises impactful businesses driving positive change for the planet. Hugo Spowers MBE and Mark Berger will be here for the full event with one of our cars; say hi if you see them 👋 Also in the photos: James Moffatt | Enrique Marin 👇 #BE100 #BlueEarthSummit #BlueEarthForum #Hydrogen #CircularEconomy
