Capgemini believes that a sustainable future requires greater collective action, bolder leadership, and smarter technology.

As part of our Business to Planet journey, we’re producing ReThink, a series of papers that look at sustainability from a fresh set of perspectives and evaluate how technology can be a key lever in the response to two major issues facing us today: the climate crisis and the threat to biodiversity. 

Our ReThink whitepapers cover a variety of sustainability issues, including governance of biodiversity, the relationship of sustainability with time, and the food ecosystem. These issues are all explored through the prisms of business, academia, non-governmental organizations, and the broader society.

These papers are produced in collaboration with key technology partners that we work together with on a daily basis, bringing together their innovative technology solutions – such as AI, precision sensors, and machine learning – and our strategic and operational skills.

Read our latest paper on the food ecosystem and look out for further editions in the coming months.

Food for thought

How can collaboration and technology drive a more sustainable food ecosystem?

On a global scale, the ways we grow, produce, source, transport, and consume food are inextricably tied to the future of our planet. According to Cyril Garcia, Capgemini Group’s Head of Sustainability Services and Corporate Responsibility, “With one-third of all food we produce going to waste, there is great potential to rethink our food ecosystem for the better.” As humanity’s consumption rapidly outpaces our planet’s resources, our focus must shift to transforming food production and consumers’ consciousness.

With our partner Microsoft, this third whitepaper explores the journey toward a more sustainable future for food, from farm to table. Amid climate change, food waste, food insecurity, and shifting consumer consciousness, it offers a holistic exploration of opportunities to overcome these challenges.

The paper showcases real-life case studies demonstrating how tech, digital, and data solutions are crucial for this systemic change. By examining the food ecosystem’s interconnections, we highlight where technology and collaboration can foster lasting impact and accelerate sustainable solutions.

Time for sustainability

This paper argues that the climate emergency implies a new relationship with time. Opposing the degrowth reflex to sustainable growth, it deconstructs the values associated with speed and slowness to stop pitting them against each other. Read on to discover more.

Tech and the living world

This paper challenges the reader to rethink our place in the global ecosystem, how profoundly we’re linked to every living being, and how we can act to protect, preserve, and restore such a precious resource – biodiversity. Read on to discover more.
