By Ken Hickson
Chairman of Sustain Ability Showcase Asia (SASA)
In my presentation in the first Masterclass on Saturday 24 June for WWF’s “WeGotThis” Youth Sustainability Incubator programme 2023, I show how Everything is Connected: The Climate Change Emergency and the 17 Sustainable Development Goals.
Achieving Net Zero Emissions
How can we do this?
· The world must move faster than ever in its determination to phase out coal, switch from all dirty fossil fuels to clean, renewable energy.
· Zero deforestation. Stop the destruction of our forests. Plant more trees. Reforestation and restoration.
· Cut CO2 emissions in every sector: buildings, fashion, technology, transport, agriculture, industry.
· Stop wasting food. There is enough for everyone if it is produced and distributed fairly.
· Give much higher priority to Energy security and Food security.
· Stop producing so much plastic that is going to waste. Polluting our rivers and our oceans. Dumped, not recycled.
