There should come a time in everyone’s life when we question our purpose, the reason for it all. Perhaps this takes the form of “why am I here?” or “what should I be doing?”Its been a question attempted to be answered for millenia; it is a form of recognition that we are more than the body, a physical dimension; we are even more than the mind, a mental direction; we seek purpose, a spiritual dimension.Is it surprising that when we set our goals in the physical, such as owning a house, a car etc. we become attached to the physical and thus our happiness is limited by the physical, transient? Likewise, when we set our goals in the mental dimension, perhaps positions of power and control, or intellectual achievement, similar limitations are experienced. I am drawn to the adventure of purpose, for how else can we make wise decisions if we do not know where we are going?Perhaps because looking back, I see how erratic my path has been, I started my career as a research scientist with the MOD, relatively quickly followed by a moment of realisation- I do not accept a well paid job that endangers others. This brought about a significant change in direction and after resigning, I initiated a community project discovering the rewards of working with people. In 1978 I founded my first company. After a solo sail around the world (I ventured on an 90 year old engine-less 34ft gaff yawl, alone), I set up several more successful companies in different places around the world, including USA (Chicago), Caribbean (Puerto Rico), South America, Europe and South East Asia (Singapore and Malaysia). Activities included engineering, manufacturing, consulting, and research. Experience in renewable energy, waste and resource management, environment and social enterprises.Erratic maybe, but it has enriched my experience enabling me to question everything I have done, so I can make better decisions for all that remains to do.
Listed skills include Engineering, Manufacturing, Energy, Strategic Planning, and 26 others.

Portugal
If those more knowledgeable than I confirm my gut feelings and common sense conclusions that society as it exists today cannot continue along the path its been treading since the industrial revolution, then building a lifeboat community is not totally foolish. A lifeboat community can support its members from within its boundaries, co-existing with its.

When Gunter Pauli approached me to learn more of my work, I had not heard of ZERI (Zero Emissions Research Initiative) or of the Blue Economy. I liked the intention, to do more good, not less bad. To not just talk about how much damage we have done, to not just project promises and ideas of doing better, but to do. It turned out there was good synergy.

A project to bring three groups together, the handicapped, first time offenders and the early retired made redundant from Plymouth dockyardThe mission was to design and build mechanisms that would permit severely handicapped to experience sailing, canoeing and other water activities. We also undertook the repair of classic and unusual craft for Exeter.
The salary and the amazing research labs made me accept the position these guys offered me, I did not seek them, they sought me. What I had not realised was just how stupid I can be, a Ministry of Defense research project, System and Weapons? Against my most fundamental principles of not causing harm to any living thing. It took me three years to discover.
