Earth 2100 | Day 1 Keynote Address | Robert Engelman

What's this all about? Our human ecological footprint has reached a totally unsustainable 1.5 Earths. Our global culture is consuming and producing wastes at unprecedented rates. Many of our resources are being depleted beyond recovery. We are causing a new, planet-wide mass extinction. These are serious problems that demand action, especially by young adults. The Earth 2100 Conference is a safe, social space for thoughtful, civil, intergenerational dialogue about these and other global issues that young people will confront over the course of their lives. What will happen? The conference has two parts: a day of learning about what is happening to Earth, and a day of discussing meaningful things that young people can do. You will learn from experts and peers about: What is actually happening to Earth; The implications of our current "Plan A" (aka, "more-of-the-same"); The hopeful "Plan B" ideas being proposed by activists, scholars, and others; and How you can become meaningfully and constructively involved.
