Citation
Description The goal of the first of two Venice presentations was to discuss more in-depth the concept of sustainability and the reality of unsustainability, caused by human activities, human production, human consumption, but primarily by human numbers, which are the primary driver of many of our current ills (including climate change, environmental degradation, and pollution, mass species extinction, water scarcity, food insecurity, pandemic emergence, increased poverty, forced migration, widespread conflict, resource-driven wars, etc.). Further, it pointed how unsustainable the current humankind is and to what numbers it needs to reduce to become sustainable, i.e., somewhere around 3 billion human beings. This presentation concluded by pointing out that sustainability is achievable but requires a sustainable humankind.
