❝ The way the global economy manages natural resources deeply influences the Earth’s climate. How we extract these resources and how much we make use of them essentially determines the emissions of greenhouse gases (GHG). How we dispose of the resulting wastes increasingly conditions the ability of nature’s sinks such as soils, forests and oceans to absorb them. Whether we seek to reduce GHG releases by means of mitigation approaches, or we try to secure the sustainability of our food, water, energy and livelihoods through adaptation measures, appropriate management of natural resources lies at the centre of virtually all viable solutions to climate change.
The Greenatmos Philosophy for ‘climate tech’ generally refers to a group of technologies that aim to address climate change by reducing or eliminating greenhouse gases from one or more sectors of economic activity (i.e., decarbonisation) and/or contributing to de-pollution (e.g., reduce water pollution) of industries.
Decoupling economic growth and human wellbeing from resource use has, therefore, to be an integral part and prime concern of climate policy. ❞

❝ Although people experiencing poverty may have a negligible contribution to climate change, they are likely to suffer the most. Numerous studies reveal that approximately 25% of all greenhouse gas emissions come from agriculture, which must be addressed. At the same time, we also want more and more people to continue travelling without adversely impacting the climate.
Fast-track innovations are the answer to help those who lag in the desired green economy. In short, we need drastic measures, urgent steps we have avoided for a long time, and that too at a much faster pace. ❞
