Our present global economic system is destroying our life support system, the Biosphere. Global consumer economics coupled with human overpopulation is destroying the Biosphere at alarming rates, rates at which Earth's systems cannot recover. The resources to support 7.6 billion humans at the level of the so-called Western lifestyle do not exist. Even though the majority of humans have not attained this level of affluence, we are even now consuming a third more each year than the Biosphere can replenish. The pollution from our resource extraction methods, modern agricultural techniques, industrial production, and over-consumption are placing virtually all of Earth's species at risk of extinction, including humans.
At The C'ELAN Foundation, we believe a global conversation effort must be organized and initiated to create a new geopolitical-economic model based on Scientific Evidence, Ecological Laws, and an Understanding of the Vital Human Connection to the Biosphere. This model must include the preservation of Wilderness and Wildlife for Perpetuity; the conservation of natural resources by reduction of consumption and human numbers; and the creation of sustainable, meaningful lifestyles within an egalitarian society that does not extract more from the Biosphere than can be replenished by its natural systems.
The C'ELAN Foundation is working with like-minded groups worldwide to create a sustainable, ethical, and thriving Biosphere for the future of all life on Earth.
