It is now no longer a question of if, but when...

Planetary boundaries
The main aspects of planetary ecological issues.

The issue is not just isolated to CO2 production and our climate but:

  • biodiversity loss
  • ocean acidification
  • ozone depletion
  • deforestation
  • microplastics
  • the nitrogen cycle
  • the phosphorus cycle

These issues combined are accelerating us towards a collapse.
