Why is this relevant?

According to the UNEP’s Green Economy Report, the demand for diminishing resources will grow and income gaps will widen as the world’s population increases to 9 billion by 2050. Crises arising in the last decade such as climate change, biodiversity loss and resource scarcity hint at what may come unless we change our patterns of behaviour. This event will open your eyes on what is currently being done to prevent such a future.
