Welcome to listen to three renowned speakers with unique experiences in environmental science and policy. They have been involved in the development of the previous and current versions of the UN Global Sustainable Development Report and the Planetary Boundries framework, as well as the current and future Global Environment Outlook. Get updated on the state of the environment and look into the future of environmental solutions and pathways.
Although a healthy and stable biosphere is the foundation for human societies, it is clear that current human activities are deteriorating the environment. Many reports and papers, including the Global Environmental Outlook (GEO), the UN Global Sustainable Development Reports, the UN SDSN Sustainable Development Reports, and the Planetary Boundaries framework papers, are all showing alarming results. In general, the ecological states of terrestrial, freshwater, and marine environments are degrading from overexploitation, habitat destruction, climate change and pollution. Unless this triple planetary crisis quickly can be turned into a regenerative development, we are burning the bridges for a sustainable development for future generations.
In this webinar you will get presentions of these reports and papers. The speakers will couple their findings and conclusions, and discuss what academics and sustainability professionals can do to mitigate the triple planetary crisis.
In addition, you will learn about the work on the coming GEO-7. In addition to assessing the state and trends of the global environment, the GEO-7 will provide guidance on the possible environmental and socio-economic implications of the transformational changes needed. It aims to provide analysis of the positive and negative socio-economic impacts of different solutions pathways.
