Welcome to Earth'75 (https://www.earth75.org), the global grassroots movement to build a sustainable, equitable world within 50 years. We stand at the precipice of an uncertain future for our planet, facing unprecedented challenges that threaten the very fabric of our existence. Climate change ravages our planet, societies splinter under the weight of inequality, and technological advancements - once heralded as our salvation - seem to widen the chasm between us. In this hyper-connected era, paradoxically, we find ourselves more isolated and spiritually bereft than ever before. Yet, in this moment of crisis lies an opportunity - a chance to redefine our trajectory and co-create a future that benefits all of humanity. It is in this spirit that we introduce Earth '75, a revolutionary, decentralized planetary change initiative. Earth '75 envisions a unified global community where humanity, nature, and technology coexist in harmony. Our mission is ambitious yet vital: to transform our world over the next 50 years by fostering interconnectedness, sustainability, equity, and cooperation. We strive to build a future where diversity is celebrated, resources are shared equitably, and technological advancements serve the greater good. #earth #future #sustainability #ethicalai

There's nothing more commendable than leaning into your Purpose. We should care and feel connected to the work we do and why we do it. Our work should benefit others. This world NEEDS more Purpose-driven Professionals. This is a huge part of my WHY. I believe I can help change the world through helping Purpose-driven Professionals fully lean into their calling.

Follow our U.S. Climate Corps Fellows! 🎥 This summer, we’re taking you behind the scenes on what our transformative fellowship program experience is like, and to celebrate how our Fellows are advancing climate strategies at a time the world needs it most.    🚚 A (work)force for good: Many of our Fellows are driving change by supporting companies’ truck fleet electrification efforts. Right now, many trucks are powered by diesel and are among the dirtiest vehicles on the road. With EVs, a zero-emission future that benefits our environment, people and the economy is possible!    ✏️ Our Fellows are busy mapping infrastructure, developing transition roadmaps and working with logistics vendors at companies like Iron Mountain and City of St. Petersburg, FL.     🤩 “My motivation to work in sustainability arises from a commitment to making a positive impact on the environment and society… My goal is to promote community development that ensures equal access and opportunity for all, prioritizing those who are often marginalized or overlooked.” – Ana Gründel, a current Zero Emissions-focused Climate Corps Fellow at the City of St. Petersburg, FL.    We’re lucky to have the tools and solutions to fix the climate crisis, but we’re missing a piece to get there – a skilled green workforce. EDF’s Climate Corps Fellows are part of the solution! Help support our Fellowship today: https://lnkd.in/eT3NqArr

The world needs new energy. With the old patterns of thought and behavior, it is not meeting its need for sustainable progress and good living for all. New energy is needed at the physical level so that transportation and living develop themselves without harmful effects on nature and the environment. New energy is needed at the mental and social levels, so that humanity is able to communicate in such a way that people can support each other and do not erupt into conflict. It is necessary to revitalize vision so that we plan our actions to become useful for a greater number of people. A vision based on humanity as a unity, unity in diversity. This helps to overcome differences in culture, history, beliefs and faith so that conflicts and fears that stand in the way of happiness and progress are reduced.
