And yet, there is a significant risk that if this capital flows through a financial architecture rooted in the same inequitable power structures and logic based on abstraction, it will simply perpetuate, and perhaps even accelerate, existing extractive processes. At this pivotal moment, the authors propose a new layer in the global financial architecture, through the creation of Bioregional Financing Facilities to serve every bioregion on Earth.\nBioregional Financing Facilities can drive the decentralization of financial resource governance, the design of project portfolios for systemic change, and the transition to a regenerative economy. They have the potential to become the connective tissue between financial resources and on-the-ground regenerators. They can achieve this by enabling integrated capital raised from a variety of sources to flow to aggregated portfolios of systemically coordinated and supported regenerative projects on the ground. In return, regeneration benefits can flow back to investors in a community-determined, non-extractive way. This book lays out how this infrastructure can put financial systems in service to life.\nWhat’s inside Why we are at a turning point for the Earth and the financial sector The necessity of moving beyond “closing the nature finance gap” How we get financial resources to synergistic portfolios of bioregional regeneration projects An overview of Bioregional Financing Facilities (BFFs) and their transformative potential Templates for four types of BFFs: the Bioregional Trust, Bioregional Venture Studio, Bioregional Investment Company, and Bioregional Bank Innovative approaches for capitalizing BFFs 12 inspiring case studies showcasing bioregional initiatives around the world A provocative call to action for a wide range of stakeholders\nAdvance Praise\n“Our institutions are no longer serving us. We must give birth to institutions that support a new kind of economy, a new kind of philosophy, a new kind of ontology, a new way of being on this planet. And Bioregional Financing Facilities can play a critical role in supporting that transition.”\n- Lynne Twist, Founder Pachamama Alliance\n“The regenerative economy I imagine MUST be built on a foundation of bioregionally adapted, landscape scale regeneration. Bioregional Financing Facilities are the critical missing infrastructure. A brilliant and timely clarion call!”\n- John Fullerton, Author of Regenerative Capitalism, and former Managing Director of JPMorgan\n\"In the 50+ years of my work in the bioregional movement, I never imagined that anything like Bioregional Financing Facilities would come forth in my lifetime (or ever). BFFs provide a specific, fully integrated, comprehensive pathway for taking ecological economics and bioregionalism from the realm of the theoretical and visionary to operational implementation. In this astonishing work the epochal spiral comes around again in a living architecture of manifestation.\"\n- David Haenke, Author of Ecological Politics and Bioregionalism\u003cbr\u003eASIN: B0DCVYTNQS\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.B0DCVYTNQS.VG\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Very Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:Power, Samantha E.|Seefeld, Leon\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Pages are clean with no markings.
