“The world is much better; the world is still awful; the world can do much better.’10 All three statements are true.”
Hannah Ritchie, Not the End of the World: How We Can Be the First Generation to Build a Sustainable Planet

“The classic definition of sustainability came out of a landmark report from the United Nations. In 1987, the UN defined sustainable development as ‘meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs’.”
Hannah Ritchie, Not the End of the World: How We Can Be the First Generation to Build a Sustainable Planet

“In 2010 I started my degree in Environmental Geoscience at the University of Edinburgh. I showed up as a fresh-faced 16-year-old, ready to learn how we were going to fix some of the world’s biggest challenges. Four years later, I left with no solutions. Instead, I felt the deadweight of endless unsolvable problems. Each day at Edinburgh was a constant reminder of how humanity was ravaging the planet.”
