If every countrywasted at the same rate
as The United States,
we would need 4 planets to even
survive.

The average UK citizen will
generate more greenhouse gases
by the time they’re 5 months old,
than someone in Tanzania will in
their entire lifetime.

The world is currentlyliving beyond theecosystem’s capacity,
And will soon go intodebt…

The current economy values someaspects of the world more, such as oil,
but ignores others, such as forests and the environment.

And forests only become important to
our economy
when they are being cut down.

Can we adapt our economy to meet the
needs of the ecosystem?
The question is:
![Page 10: Global Warming Excellence](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070302/54815b23b37959932b8b5e75/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
The only solution:
A new type of economics,
one which values people
and the planet.
![Page 11: Global Warming Excellence](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022070302/54815b23b37959932b8b5e75/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
We need to create a better economy,
one that protects the Earth instead of destroying it. We need to make an
eco-economy

Proposals:
A new global food system that stops the
environmentally wasteful and damaging way
we produce and trade what we eat.

Redesigning human development so that it is climate proof and
climate friendly.

Create new technologies that are less material dependent.
i.e. The use of cell phones, which rely on satellites instead of copper wire;
costing less money.

One way to lessen pollution
is to put more taxes on what’s causing it.

Use light bulbs that require less energy.
i.e.-Compact Fluorescent light bulbs can save up to 150 pounds of Carbon Dioxide a year.

We need to create an eco-economy that will prevent bankruptcy

• The demand for snow equipment will go down because of the rising temperature caused by global warming.
