The “Planet Earth” and her delicate ENVIRONMENT are the cornerstone of the Evergreen Foundation work.

“Environmental” issues are usually defined in terms of science, technology, politics, economics and/or government policy. However, the Evergreen Foundation is more concerned with the questions of ethics and human values. We believe the complex challenge of “Climate Change” is not merely a moral issue; it may be the single most important moral issue of the 21st Century.

The present debate about “scientific uncertainty” is likely to paralyze and inhibit action.  Rather than wait until the final resolution, the Evergreen Foundation holds the following views:

…The Planet Earth is in a condition of deteriorating crisis.

…Human actions have been [and will continue to be] a significant contributor to this crisis.

...Extraordinary efforts and energies are essential.

…Business as usual is not acceptable. There is no “silver bullet”. Multiple solutions must be developed.

…It is probable that all parties will have to make real sacrifices.
