Five deep changes urgently needed for a sustainable world and how to achieve them: UN report.

  • This week = Redefine value: From economic wealth to planetary health.

Global wealth has surged, with world GDP growing from $4.5 trillion to over $100 trillion in 50 years, boosting life expectancy and comfort worldwide. However, these benefits are not shared equally. The richest 10% of the world population owns 76% of global wealth, while the poorest half of the population holds just 2%. Meanwhile, we are pushing our planet to its limits.
