Sad to hear of the death of my friend Charles Medawar. I wrote about his work at Social Audit in New Scientist back in 1978 – and I was thrilled when he agreed to be a founder member of the SustainAbility Council in 1996.
Last bumped into him in the Reform Club a few years back – and was reminded how much I had appreciated his wise counsel. A life of very considerable impact.
As I suspect was true of many people, I knew of his parents’ brilliance before I experienced his. The Guardian’s obituary can be found here: https://www.theguardian.com/world/2025/mar/16/charles-medawar-obituary. Go in peace.
