In the discussion of climate challenges, their impact on the planet, and solutions, I've never found the apocalyptic angle particularly helpful. However, it's clear that trends continue to emerge and converge raising cause for concern. Population growth, rapid urbanization, the underbelly of middle-class growth, food and water security, and rising conflict are just a few. How do we mitigate these challenges? Many leaders, particularly those in emerging economies, continue to pursue growth at a substantial cost to the environment and future generations. It is the right of these inhabitants to secure a better life than generations before, but what does that "better life" entail? I do believe that this growth can be achieved sustainably. Despite this belief, global alignment on the problem and solutions remains distant. Focusing on urban-based solutions and a more equitable distribution of economics across the climate ecosystem will be necessary to mitigate future challenges. #climatechange #geopoliticalrisk #urbanization #megacities #sustainabledevelopmentgoals #sdg12 #sdg2030 #sustainablecities
