| content | "<p>Beyond the SDGS there are a wide variety of frameworks for describing sustainability: here are two examples and how they could be used to change the messaging and structure of a knowledge gap project. Depending on how you want to approach organizing a campaign or event, you might choose a different framework to communicate your goals. </p> <p><strong>Triple Planetary Crisis</strong> is a UN framework being used to describe the intersectional nature of three environmental crises. The three crises are:</p> <ul> <li><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pollution" target="[object Object]">Pollution</a> (including air, water and plastic pollution)</li> <li><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biodiversity_loss" target="[object Object]">Biodiversity loss</a> (including loss of fauna and flora extinction and ecosystem destruction on both land and sea)</li> <li><a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Climate_change" target="[object Object]">Climate change</a> (including both mitigation and adaptation)</li> </ul> <p>The resulting triple planetary crisis harms human health and economies, has cross-territorial impacts(i.e. one nation's choices have direct impacts on the health of others) and is governed by treaty obligations by member states in the UN (<a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_international_environmental_agreements" target="[object Object]">see this full list of treaties</a>).</p> <p>This knowledge framework is useful if you want to focus on activists responding to the current crises we are in, and want to highlight topics recently in the news or related to civil society in your context.</p> <p></p>" |
