The world is in real danger of breaching the tipping points of numerous ecosystems upon which human and other species’ survival depends -- including the planet’s climate system. The people and communities most adversely affected are also the ones least responsible and least capable of coping with the consequences.
For IBON, therefore, measures to address the climate crisis and other grave environmental problems of today must be consistent with science and social justice. To this end, IBON conducts research-education and information activities on the roots, impacts and solutions to the climate crisis among Southern and Northern civil society organizations and social movements.
