Special Report from SGK-PLANET
Criticism of global climate management in the last half century
About Human Activity on Earth between 1972-2022
The situation of the planet, after the 1972 Stockholm Conference, bears little resemblance to what the Swedish capital projected for the future of the Earth 50 years ago. For this reason, it seemed opportune to contrast those idealistic principles, proclamations and thoughts, emanating from the First Earth Summit, with the reality that we have today. We have accompanied this work with our constructive criticism, without leaving the positive facts in the inkwell. Keep reading..
COP16 on Biodiversity
21 Oct – 01 Nov
Only ten days separate the end of COP16-Biodiversity (1-11-2024) from the beginning of COP29-Climate Change (11-11-2024). Hopefully, the end of COP16 will not be repeated at COP 29, since the Conference on Biodiversity ended badly. That is how it should be said, without euphemisms. Keep reading…

FAQs on key topics
Soil. Deforestation and degradation of the Amazon
They are shaping up to be the biggest climate change threats on Earth, as there is no transition plan in place.
The deforestation of the Amazon is pushing the Amazonian ecosystem to a point of transformation of no return in which the forest would lose its ability to function.
There is no such thing as “net-zero-deforestation”, or a “logging moratorium” or “fight against deforestation”. As if there is for greenhouse gas emissions. If no action is taken, the massive removal of trees will continue unchecked. Due to the size of the jungle, it is a growing threat to life on Earth.
