Humanity’s big problem: luxury carbon consumption, not population
Future population size, which new research suggests has been overestimated, is not the primary factor behind planetary problems like climate change. Instead, the world's wealthiest are producing the largest material footprint.
Educating people about climate change in a country where many still consider the topic personally irrelevant is a huge challenge, but tailoring messages to people's worldviews and everyday experiences could help.
Indigenous knowledge has helped guide Pacific Islanders’ resilience and adaptation to changing climates for centuries, but it is still often overlooked.
The Indigenous people's respect for the land and their traditional agricultural practices can teach us to adapt to extreme weather conditions.
