Paul Hawken

As someone deeply invested in the fight against climate change, I strongly believe that high-income countries must lead the charge. These nations have historically contributed the most to greenhouse gas emissions and possess the resources and technology to make substantial changes. It is our moral obligation to set an example and alleviate the burden on low- and middle-income countries, enabling a global transition to sustainable practices.

I strongly believe that planting more trees is one of the most effective ways we can combat climate change, restore ecosystems, and improve biodiversity. Trees absorb carbon dioxide, provide habitat for wildlife, and improve air and water quality. We must increase our efforts to reforest and preserve natural environments for future generations.
