THE CIRCULARITY OF LIFE:
AN ESSENTIAL SHIFT FOR SUSTAINABILITY

OAKLAND, CA, November 19, 2008 --/WORLD-WIRE/--
Jane Cull, founder and lead consultant of Life’s Natural Solutions, an
educational consultancy in Sydney, Australia, applies the theories of
living systems to describe the shift in worldview now taking place
that is key to our future survival.
In her new digital book, The Circularity of Life: An Essential Shift
for Sustainability, Cull describes the destructive effects of human
activity on the viability of life on earth and how understanding our
place within the web of life will move us toward a sustainable future.
“The human race is at the threshold of the next phase in its
evolution,” notes Cull. “To survive, we need to shift our worldview to
a perception of life in which we humans see ourselves interconnected
in a vast circular system.”
Drawing on the work of renowned Chilean systems biologist Dr. Humberto
Maturana, a pioneer in the biology of cognition, Cull uses the concept
of circularity to lay the foundation for this important paradigm
shift, where our living and relating becomes based on social and
environmental sustainability.
Esteemed internationally as a trail blazer in the field of
sustainability, Cull advocates the design and implementation of
alternative technologies that will not harm or impinge upon the web of
life, but are instead congruent with it. She touches on current issues
such as global warming and fossil fuel alternatives, organic farming,
consumer packaging, toxic waste, energy conservation, biodiversity,
forestry, fishing, chemicals in the home, ethical investing, and other
sustainable technologies.
Anyone that is interested in sustainability not just on a personal
level, but also on a big picture level, needs to read this book. The
Circularity of Life: An Essential Shift for Sustainability is

Sustainability and associated studies in 1994 with extensive research
into the theories of living systems through the work of world-renowned
Chilean Systems Biologist Dr. Humberto Maturana and the late Dr.
Francisco Varela. Cull has embodied and expanded on their work to
provide an experiential and conceptual understanding of biology, human
perception, the circularity of life and how we make the shift to
construct a more sustainable world. Cull continues to bring these
understandings to life through workshops, seminars and her latest
e-book, The Circularity of Life: An Essential Shift for
Sustainability.
