Welcome
Climate change and the sustainability crisis are the issues of our times. Two hundred years of ever-intensifying human impacts have left the biosphere in a perilous state. The oceans are warming, glaciers disappearing, and the natural world is in sharp decline.
UN experts estimate the damage to the world’s marine ecosystems could take a million years to undo. Meanwhile, global population is growing by 80 million a year, and the high-consumption lifestyles we in Ireland and the ‘developed’ world enjoy are accelerating the pressure on our planet.
There is a moral imperative to act now, while we still can. This website draws on expertise from around the world. Our ‘Think or Swim’ blog is updated regularly, as is our Video channel and Events Calendar. If you’d like to get involved, contact us.
