In 2018 and 2019, Daniel Edelstyn @dan777edelstyn and Hilary Powell @hilary_powell started their own bank in Walthamstow, London. They printed their own banknotes, raised funds and bought £1.2 million in locally owned debts. Then they packed it into a van and blew it up with Canary Wharf in the background. By default, the kerb is used for parking cars - but what if it was reclaimed as public space? Last week I wrote about the benefits of floating solar panels, mainly on reservoirs. But did you know you can install them at sea as well? That's from 'a dialogue with a cynic', written two thousand years ago - and as relevant today in a world obsessed with economic growth.
