[Overview]
Planetary Boundary science demonstrates that today’s economic system is pushing the Earth system beyond its stability and resilience—the very limits of the “Global Commons,” our shared human heritage. To safeguard humanity’s well-being and prevent drifting away from the “safe operating space” of the planet, an urgent transformation of our economic system is required.
One effective means is to properly value natural capital and integrate it into economic decision-making. At this forum, experts from around the world will gather to present pathways forward, including the latest developments in Planetary Boundary science, accelerating the transition to a new economic system through the valuation of natural capital, connecting local initiatives with global perspectives, and building effective AI governance to support these efforts.
