The Environmental Imperative
Our global economy is causing irreparable damage to global ecosystems and changing our climate. We need to act now.
Our climate is changing
The burning of fossil fuels, among other causes, is emitting massive amounts of CO2 and greenhouse gases. These emissions trap heat in our atmosphere and increase the severity and frequency of natural disasters and extreme weather events, among other outcomes.

Oceans are rapidly acidifying and warming
More than 90% of all the extra heat energy trapped by our atmosphere is going into the oceans. This is increasing their temperature and acidity, and raising sea levels. Warmer and more acidic oceans are more volatile and cause harm to all ocean life.

We have entered a period of mass global extinction
We are entering the sixth mass extinction. The main direct causes of biodiversity loss are habitat change, direct exploitation (e.g., fishing, hunting and logging), invasive alien species, pollution, and climate change.

Global food, water, and natural resource systems are at risk
Overexploitation, unsustainable agricultural methods, and monocultures threaten our global food supply, meanwhile climate change increases the frequency and severity of droughts and floods, exacerbating the problems.

We are gambling with the lives of future generations
