Friday Dec 02, 2022
In this episode, Till Kellerhoff, Program Director of the Club of Rome and Coordinator & National Engagement Lead of the Earth4All initiative talks to Rik's mind podcast.
As the United States is still caught in the throes of denial of climate change and “doom & gloom” reigns, Rik and Till discuss how the latest report to The Club of Rome - Earth4All is trying to change the narrative.
Building on their groundbreaking report “The Limits to Growth”, released in 1972, the Club has convened a new group to help humanity grow out of our fossil fuel addiction. Their new report “Earth4All” started as a vibrant collective of leading economic thinkers, scientists, and advocates, convened by The Club of Rome, the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research, the Stockholm Resilience Centre and the Norwegian Business School.

Living within Limits

The Limits to Growth modeled our planet’s interconnected systems and warned that if growth trends in population, industrialisation, resource use and pollution continued unchanged, we would reach and overshoot the carrying capacity of the Earth in the 21st century. We are now crossing tipping points and overloading our planet. Author Dennis Meadows, economist Jayati Ghosh, activist Luisa Neubauer, and scientist Johan Rockstrom reflect on 50 years since the report.
