Climate Circle

Investing in our Planet

Mitigating the consequences of climate change is one of the most important, contemporary challenges. Population growth creates rising demand for energy and food production as well as mitigates the planet’s ability to sequester carbon. This releases greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions, a major cause of rising temperatures which lead to increased heat and drought, declining water supplies, health impacts due to wildfires, flooding, and erosion.

 

We are the first generation to fully understand climate change and the last generation to be able to do something about it.
