Global crises come and go. Not so the climate emergency and loss of biodiversity. This crisis is here to stay and in our betrayal of nature, we have caused it. Irreparable damage to Planet Earth, our home, has already happened. Now is the time to act much more decisively to halt further damage. If we don’t look after our home, where will we live? The challenge presented by climate change and loss of biodiversity is being answered by everyone; local communities, governments and global agencies. -
