SUMMARY:Youth Climate Strike
DESCRIPTION:YOUTH CLIMATE STRIKE\nThis September\, millions of us will walk out of our workplaces and homes to join young climate strikers on the streets and demand an end to the age of fossil fuels. \nOur house is on fire — let’s act like it. We demand climate justice for everyone. \nWhy go on Climate Strike?\n\nOur house is on fire. The climate crisis is an emergency but we’re not acting like it. People everywhere are at risk if we let oil\, coal and gas companies continue to pour more fuel on the fire.\nOur hotter planet is already hurting millions of people. If we don’t act now to transition fairly and swiftly away from fossil fuels to 100% renewable energy access for all\, the injustice of the climate crisis will only get worse.\nWe need to act right now to stop burning fossil fuels and ensure a rapid energy revolution with equity\, reparations and climate justice at its heart.\nBut it’s going to take all of us working together to succeed. Join the Climate Strikes starting on September 20 – three days out from the UN’s climate emergency summit and continuing on September 27.  \nMillions of us will walk out from home\, work\, school or university to declare a climate emergency and show our politicians what action in line with climate science and justice means.\nThe climate crisis won’t wait\, so neither will we. \n\nWhat difference will it make?\n\nThese Climate Strikes won’t solve the climate crisis alone. What this moment can do is demonstrate that people are no longer willing to continue with business as usual. The urgency of the climate crisis requires a new approach and a just response centred on human rights\, equity\, and justice.\nGreta Thunberg’s lone protest caught the world’s attention last year\, and has spread to millions of school children who are sounding the alarm. Now it’s everyone’s turn to stand with young people and show world leaders the people power demanding climate justice. September’s climate strikes will kickstart a huge wave of action and renewed ambition all over the world. \n\nCan adults join in?\n\nAbsolutely! School strikers have invited everyone to walk out in solidarity with them on Friday September 20 and 27. This is a global moment to show politicians everywhere that our movement is growing from strength to strength and we won’t stop until we get climate justice for everyone. This is only the beginning. \n\n  \n  \n  \nhttps://globalclimatestrike.net/

SUMMARY:International Conference on Environmental Psychology
DESCRIPTION:Save event \nOn behalf of the Organising Committee we are delighted to invite you to participate in the International Conference on Environmental Psychology: ‘Protecting People and Planet through Social and Behavioural Science’ to be held in Plymouth (the UK’s ‘Ocean City’).  \nThis international conference is being organised under the auspices of the Division of Environmental Psychology of the International Association of Applied Psychology (IAAP) to promote the science and practice of applied psychology and to facilitate scientific exchange and communication on themes relevant to the increasingly policy-recognised field of environmental psychology. \nSeveral inspirational keynote talks will represent not just environmental psychology but also related disciplines and environmental policymaking with the deliberate intention of discussing how the environmental psychology community can best translate its rigorous science into meaningful change. As Environmental and Applied Psychologists at this conference we hope to make a contribution to the United Nations’ Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). For many of these SDGs\, understanding the human dimension (e.g. research on perceptions\, motivations\, behaviours\, people-environment interactions etc) is absolutely crucial. \nVisit the conference webpage for more information

SUMMARY:Circularity19: Accelerating the Circular Economy
DESCRIPTION:Circularity19 – Minneapolis\, MN\nMinneapolis Marriott\nCircularity isn’t just another sustainability framework — it’s a radically different way of doing business. It’s an emerging business strategy that enables companies and organizations to innovate in ways that address resource scarcity and climate risk\, respond to consumer and societal pressure to reduce waste\, and unlock a $4.5 trillion economic opportunity. \nThe circular economy is transformational\, disruptive\, regenerative and will create opportunities at every part of the economic spectrum. It requires engaging with a company’s entire value chain\, even with competitors and companies outside of one’s sector. \nHowever\, it is still early days. There is a lack of awareness about the circular economy and many myths and misunderstandings about how to finance it\, the impact of the policy environment and how more companies and cities can seize the moment. \nCircularity 19 is the largest circular economy event in North America. The event will bring together more than 500 thought leaders and practitioners to accelerate the circular economy opportunity. Through inspirational plenaries\, interactive breakouts\, hands-on charrettes\, networking opportunities and a solutions-focused showcase\, Circularity 19 will inspire\, inform and empower participants to turn circular economy concepts into profitable opportunities for companies and cities.

SUMMARY:World Day to Combat Desertification 2019
DESCRIPTION:The theme \n2019WDCD will be celebrated under the theme of 25 years of implementation of the Convention and beyond\, focusing on the path the Convention has taken\, and the future the Convention could bring. \nThe past 25 years \nSince its adoption in 1994\, UNCCD has contributed to the advancement of sustainable land management. Today\, its 197 Parties implement the Convention under coordinated and results-oriented actions with clear targets to recover and restore degraded land. The end goal is to protect our land\, from over-use and drought\, so it can continue to provide us all with food\, water and energy. \nThere are clear evidences of recovery and restoration of degraded landscapes through sustainable land management (SLM) practices over these years. For example\, over five million hectares of degraded land in the Sahel region have been restored through a practice known as ‘farmer-managed natural regeneration’\, producing additional half a million tons of grain each year. Re-introduction of Agroforestry increased trees on farms worldwide\, most notably in Brazil\, Indonesia\, China\, and India. \nStill\, much more needs to be done – and sooner rather than later. The current pressures on land are enormous and expected to continue growing. Nearly 170 countries continue to be affected by desertification\, land degradation or drought. The recurrent and growing threats of forest fires\, heatwaves\, mass migrations\, flash floods\, sea-level rise and food and water insecurity are more evident. \nThe next 25 years \nThe importance and urgency of addressing these challenges are more widely recognized than it was two decades ago as shown in the adoption of achieving land degradation neutrality as one of the Sustainable Development Goals. \n2030 will be a significant milestone for achieving land degradation neutrality as one of the Sustainable Development Goals. But it is a stepping stone towards a true land-based sustainable future. By achieving land degradation neutrality\, we would have more land available for further sustainable development. What becomes more important\, then\, will be to generate and sustain fundamental and sustainable positive change by keeping the productive land productive. \nAs an international agreement on good land stewardship\, the Convention must move forward to achieving land degradation neutrality by 2030 and dive into the world beyond 2030 where land degradation neutrality ensures an enabling environment for people\, communities and countries to create wealth\, grow economies and secure enough food\, clean water and energy. Towards this ambition\, the Parties to the Convention are taking concrete steps. These steps include tackling of the root causes of instability in Africa (3S Initiative); developing comprehensive national plans for drought management; and restoring Africa’s degraded landscapes at massive scale (Great Green Wall Initiative). \nKey messages \n\nAs the world has become more and more fragile against the effect of a changing climate\, the Convention must grow\, and be recognized as the authority and leader on achieving Land Degradation Neutrality (LDN) and leveraging LDN as a stepping stone towards true land-based sustainable development beyond 2030.\nThe 197 Parties to the Convention renews their commitment to good land stewardship that helps people\, communities and countries create wealth\, grow economies and secure enough food\, clean water and energy by ensuring land users an enabling environment for sustainable land management.\nSustainable land management is everyone’s business. Together\, we can restore the productivity of over 2 billion hectares of degraded land and improve the livelihoods of more than 1.3 billion people around the world.\n\nThe slogan \nLet’s grow the future together
