What is Compression?
Compression is the art and science of improving quality of life while greatly reducing the usage of resources and eliminating all toxins: Doing better with less.
Compression also refers to:
- Population growth packing us ever tighter on a finite planet
- Squeezed resources; they’re not unlimited.
- Compress waste out of all work processes, eliminating everything unnecessary for the purpose.
- Compress resource footprints for all human activity.
- Compress work organizations’ learning cycles: Complexity is increasing, so learn more, integrate what is learned, and put it into action faster.
