A short and succinct explanation of the Environmental Tracking concept: a system which, if adopted at scale, will bring about a seismic shift in our ability to harness the power of the investment system to place us on a more sustainable trajectory.This mechanism offers a framework by which we can create a financial incentive to reduce emissions within the global economy via the 'trojan horse' of the index model. It is a means by which the 'externality' of climate change can finally be 'internalised', decisively changing corporate behaviour throughout the world..By influencing a company at the share price level, Environmental Tracking seeks to provide the platform for a smooth transition to a low carbon economy parallel to, and independent of, government action.

In this provocative study of dancing, Sam Gill examines the interpretive styles of a variety of cultural dance traditions in discourse with the philosophic traditions of Schiller, Merleau-Ponty, Barbaras, Derrida, Leroi-Gourhan, and Baudrillard. As a scholar of religion, Gill provides special consideration to the importance of this emerging appreciation of dancing as a perspective inclusive of body and experience. Each chapter delves into the many factions of dancing: moving, gesturing, self-othering, playing, seducing, and masking. Gill also draws on the analysis of contemporary dance films and musicals, his experience as a dancer and dance teacher, his extensive research on dance traditions, and his interest in neurobiology and phenomenology to develop the core of this rich exploration of ';dancing,' the structurality of all dances.
