Humanity as a whole has acknowledged that climate change is a threat to growth and a profit-driven renewable economy is on its way. There is a shift away from fossil fuels and towards green energy. Oil companies are changing their missions to become primary plastics producers. Energy security and green growth are primary political and economic drivers. Business is beginning to develop longer term visions, supported by the legal system that tends towards deregulation and ’New Climate’ laws. While single-solution business and technologies are geared towards mitigating climate change, other environmental concerns are still present. Food insecurity, loss of biodiversity and habitat degradation are just a few unresolved issues. | Humanity as a whole has acknowledged that climate change is a threat to growth and a profit-driven renewable economy is on its way.
