Nine Planetary Boundaries: A Safe Operating Space for Humans 

Over the period of 5 decades we have added 4 billion people to our planet. By 2020 our population was 8.5 billion. With the combination of more people and longer lifetimes our absolute numbers continue to rise.


All of these people of course require the use of more resources. We continue to turn forests into farmland, wilderness into wheat fields and prairie into parking lots at an unprecedented rate. It is now becoming painfully obvious that there are limits to essential global resources.


We are now over stepping the planetary boundaries that are vital for our survival and we are pushing the physical limits of our planet. So join me for E154 with is Part One of The Nine Planetary Boundaries. A Safe Operating Space for Humans. 

Always remember to live sustainably because this is how we build a better future.
