flag A UN report states that investing in planetary health could boost global GDP by $20 trillion by 2070 and prevent millions of deaths, while inaction risks trillions in costs.

flag A new UN report warns that environmental degradation costs trillions annually and threatens global health, food security, and economies. flag However, investing in planetary health—through sustainable energy, food systems, waste reduction, and ecosystem restoration—could boost global GDP by up to $20 trillion yearly by 2070, prevent nine million premature deaths by 2050, lift nearly 200 million from undernourishment, and remove over 100 million from extreme poverty. flag Achieving net-zero emissions would require $8 trillion in annual investment by 2050, but the cost of inaction is far greater. flag The UN urges nations to adopt inclusive wealth metrics and accelerate progress on global environmental agreements.
