Climate change, and related changes put humanity at risk. In my opinion, serious changes will be needed to sustain human growth and development while caring for the environment. We need to treat the natural environment as an investment and not as a wasting resource to be exploited.
Snippet:
• decline of fish stocks;
• loss of fertile land through degradation;
• unsustainable pressure on resources;
• dwindling amount of fresh water available for humans and other creatures to share; and
• risk that environmental damage could pass unknown points of no return
Its the last that particularly concerns me. What tipping point we will we reach unexpectedly?
