Comment: Sustainability is under unprecedented attack. Here’s how we can fight back
Those working for a sustainable future are under attack. Progress is being dismantled and a new reality is hitting hard. And yet there’s no shared plan for what comes next. The time for passive observation, or for relying on vague calls for “courage” or “digging deeper” is past. We need a new strategy – fast.
