The Situation
There exist today myriad environmental groups that seek to protect an extraordinary array of environmental interests, from mammals to minerals to marigolds. The need for such institutions is indisputable; humans are usurping the planet's resources and causing global climate change at a startling rate.
Even for its staunchest defenders, it is becoming difficult to support the widespread view that resources are infinite and that it is appropriate to live singularly within the goal of personal, immediate gain. Whether swayed by moral arguments or pressing necessity, each citizen of humanity is currently faced with the reality that we have inherited a world in which we have no choice but to consider both the environmental and social components of our personal and professional decisions. Envirolution seeks to make people aware of how our lives are implicated in this reality and how we can prepare for a sustainable future in a carbon-constrained, climate-conscious world. We see an impressive Green Wave taking hold, and Envirolution serves to empower youth to become leaders of a new, mainstream, and diverse sustainability movement.
