MISSION

Millennial assessments of the environmental
problems confronting people of all nations have
shown that the problems are severe and, in large
part, the product of human activities.

* Climate change,
* decline of food security,
* loss of biological diversity,
* depletion of water and other vital resources with
consequent conflict,
*use of unsustainable and environmentally malign
energy technologies,
*deleterious changes in patterns of land use, and
*toxification of the planet with unregulated pollutants
that may be dangerous even in traces,

All threaten the human future. Yet society stubbornly
refuses to take comprehensive steps to deal with
them and their drivers,
* population growth
* overconsumption by the rich, and
* the deployment of environmentally malign
technologies.
