    "Disruption does not mean “breakthrough” or “new & shiny.” "It's not an event, it's a process. It’s intertwined w/the resource allocation process in the firm, in the changing needs of customers & potential customers, & in the constant evolution of technology." -Clay Christensen

    I've been struggling to come up with a way to represent how much each of us effectively releases in our daily lives. For the developed world, it's roughly our body weight, or about 150 to 200 lbs EACH day! That is equal to about 100,000 cubic meters - drawn to scale below.

    Maybe that's why I often love going into new areas that I know nothing about, but still see a problem that I feel needs solving. At the same time, I agree that can be dangerous, as there are often troublesome patches you have to learn the hard way!

    "The forces that combine to cause disruption are like gravity…they are constant and always at work within and around them. It takes very skilled and very astute leaders to be navigating disruption on a daily base.” -Clay Christensen

    “I’m done with fossil fuels,” -CNBC’s Jim Cramer. "These stocks don’t want to be owned by young people.. The world’s turned on them… They’re tobacco.” Energy today accounts for just 3.8% of the value of the S&P 500—down from 16% in 2008.

    Chris, thanks for sharing this. It is staggering to see what our "carbon footprint" really looks like. Once I converted it to pounds per day, or visualized the actual volume, it was shocking to me! That's why we have to work so hard to make it smaller..
