WELCOME
1970 also marked the founding of Earth Day
Bringing millions into the environmental movement
1970 was an important year
Public awareness, scientific inquiry, and political action converged around environmental issues
What has
changed�since 1970?
Spoiler Alert
It’s not good
What actions are needed?
Mitigation: Radically reduce Greenhouse Gas�emissions towards net-zero.
Conservation: Use resources more efficiently.
Adaptation: Prepare infrastructure to cope better with the growing impacts of climate change.
Climate Change is no longer a distant threat, it’s here now and demands meaningful collective action
Businesses need to move from environmental sustainability to environmental viability
It’s time to change how we evaluate�businesses - assess their true viability not just sustainability ideals.
In the past sustainability was seen as optional,�symbolic, or mainly for brand image.
Today it is mainstream, measurable, and directly tied to business performance.
What are the major threats to the environmental viability for your business?
