Professor Geoffrey Lipman, President SUNx Malta gave the keynote at the Igem Summit as part of the WED Stockholm celebrations. During his address he commented on the visionary early role of Maurice Strong in building today's UN Led Climate and Sustainability response programs, as well as the potential of Climate Friendly Travel to help catalyse a just transformation to Zero GHG 2050.
His main point being that while we are running out of time to make the essential changes we still have hope for a bright future in the energy, passion and enthusiasm of the next generation of young graduates for a clean & green future.
We Still have Time. And the secret sauce for a better future lies in those next generations – our kids and grandkids –
- Who have green, nature based thinking in their DNA.
- Who have deep passion in their hearts for a cleaner, greener Paris 1,5 and SDG led future
- Who have an inherent sense of decency unpolluted by cynicism, greed, inequity and beggar my neighbour politics that our world has created.
