We've Got a Problem
● 97% of the world's climate scientists warn that we have seven years to avert an irreversible planetary disaster. Our planet is on fire - and it’s not the only one taking on heat . . .
● Organizations are taking heat about what they are doing to, and/or not doing for our environment
● This heat is costly: loss of consumers, employees, investors, market share, partners, revenue, shareholders, stakeholders, and suppliers . . . and reputation!
● The age of “greenwashing” is over – it's time for companies to change.
● Currently there is no private sector initiative addressing this issue. (And Business Roundtable pledges by large companies do not cut it!) Time to walk the talk on a massive scale!

OUR GLOBAL CRISIS
97% of climate scientists agree- the earth is warming due to human are activity.

ONE HOT MESS!
ONE HOT MESS!
If current greenhouse gas emissions remain steady, we have a 93% chance of a planet that is hotter by four degrees Celsius.
This ensures food and health risks, increased intensity and frequency of storms, floods, heat waves, water scarcity and quality, permanent land loss due to sea level rise, etc.
This leads to unimaginable economic, environmental, security, and health threats, including pandemics.
IMPACTS TO HUMANS
IMPACTS TO HUMANS
In 2019, 24 million people were displaced by weather-related disasters.

THE BOTTOM LINE:
If millions of people and organizations
do not act quickly and aggressively,
like our lives and those of our loved
ones matter, we will either live
on an uninhabitable planet . . .
or no longer exist.
