Given that Climate Week NYC is underway, we thought it'd be important to remind ourselves and our Built by Nature networks about the critical challenges we face if we are to avert a climate and planetary catastrophe. Stockholm Resilience Centre co-founder and climate impact scientist Johan Rockström presents an alarming reality check in this TED Talk: the planet is changing faster than anticipated; but, as he offers the latest findings in climate science that provide reason to be nervous, there's a sense of cautious optimism as well. As we near the halfway point of the 2020s (which was to be the most decisive decade for action), this is a compelling scientific overview of the state of our planet, while outlining the steps which need to be taken to ensure that the Earth and all of her species can survive human activity. #climateemergency #climateaction #decarbonisation #natureandbiodiversity #circularity

"One of the most profound takeaways from the Esri - GIS for Climate Action course is that we all possess a powerful tool to drive positive change in the face of climate change: our collective voice. By engaging in meaningful conversations, we can collectively catalyze solutions that start at home, in our communities, and within our social circles. By sharing our thoughts, ideas, and experiences, we can empower ourselves and others to make conscious choices that benefit the planet. This empowering realization has the potential to spark a ripple effect of change, as we learn to harness the collective power of our voices to create a more sustainable future."  #climateMOOC
