Simon A. Levin is the James S. McDonnell Distinguished University Professor in Ecology and Evolutionary Biology at Princeton University. Speaking to Srijana Mitra Das, he discusses lessons for economic systems from nature: They are considered entirely separate fields — why do you say economy and ecology are in fact similar? The economist Kenneth Arrow once explained it was no coincidence that both ecology and economics begin with ‘eco’, which means ‘house’. Ecological systems are economic there is competition for resources, exploitation, etc., while economic systems are like ecology, with individuals making decisions, emergent patterns and the like.

Hardik Pandya recently sparked curiosity and conversation on social media with his latest Instagram post, where he was seen wearing an olive green shirt. What caught the attention of fans wasn't just the shirt but the green heart and hat emojis he used in the caption. The choice of outfit and the subtle symbolism in the caption seemed to resonate with many who recalled similar fashion choices by his ex-wife, Natasa Stankovic. Hardik and Natasa, who were together for four years, publicly announced their separation in July. The couple has a son, Agastya, who is currently living with Natasa in Serbia. Since their split, Natasa has been actively sharing glimpses of her life in Serbia, including photographs of her exploring the countryside with Agastya. Interestingly, she has also been seen wearing olive green in some of these pictures, similar to Hardik’s recent outfit choice. This has led to speculation that Hardik might be subtly referencing Natasa in his posts, perhaps indicating that there’s still some connection or influence between them despite their separation.

Many others expressed similar sentiments after reading my last two columns on how funders have made the world of NGOs more fake and flaky. All put most of the onus of these trends on funders, not on the NGOs—big or small—that are pushed along the dimensions of fakeness and flakiness by individual funders and the dangerous momentum in this sector.

crimes against women and counter the mindset that sees women as «less powerful, less capable, less intelligent». «Those who share such views then go further and see the female as an object… We owe it to our daughters to remove the hurdles from their path of winning the freedom from fear,» Murmu said in an exclusive signed article for PTI. Referring to the August 9 rape and murder of a junior doctor in a Kolkata hospital, a «dismayed and horrified» president said what is even more depressing is that it is part of a series of crimes against women. Murmu said no civilised society can allow daughters and sisters to be subjected to such atrocities. «The nation is bound to be outraged, and so am I,» she wrote.

From artificial intelligence (AI) and electric vehicles to blockchain and composites, we are in a golden age of innovation. To unlock value from these technologies, though, businesses must transform themselves, and, according to a McKinsey and Company study, over 70% of such efforts fall short. Obviously, businesses adopting a new technology need the right key performance indicators (KPIs) and internal alignment of their operations to ensure they get what they want out of it.
