Sustainability education can end the Climate Crisis.

The urgency of addressing the climate crisis has never been clearer than now. From rising temperatures to unpredictable weather patterns and the depletion of natural resources, are enough signals for us to pull our socks up and do something about the status quo.
Sustainability isn’t just a buzzword we should casually toss around - it’s the lever to reversing and mitigating the damage caused by decades of overconsumption and subsequent environmental neglect. According to the United Nations, by 2050, the global population is expected to reach 9.7 billion. Our current consumption patterns are evidently unsustainable for such a large population. If we don’t change our current habits, we’ll be heading towards a very grim environmental future.
A study by Nielsen, showed that 73% of millennials are willing to pay more on sustainable products. We work closely with many corporations, and we are closely observing how they are becoming more aware of their environmental impact.
In order to expedite changes, we need to embed sustainability in our everyday decisions and discussions - and that’s where education comes in.
Education & Informed Decisions:
The premise of education is that it empowers individuals to make choices that are not only good for them but also for the planet. Whether it’s knowing how to reduce waste, choosing energy efficient devices, or supporting ethical brands - sustainability education provides us with the know-how to make informed decisions.
Informed individuals have a greater likelihood to demand for change, adopt sustainable livelihoods and influence policies to drive fundamental action. When people understand the environmental cost of plastic waste, there is a larger probability to reduce their single use plastic consumption and opt for sustainable alternatives. Consumers, who prioritise sustainability can push companies to adopt greener practices, leading to systemic change.
