 “Humanity is sitting on a ticking time bomb. If the vast majority of the world’s scientists are right, we have just ten years to avert a major catastrophe that could send our entire planet into a tail-spin of epic destruction involving extreme weather, floods, droughts, epidemics and killer heat waves beyond anything we have ever experienced”. This is the basic statement of “An Inconvenient Truth”, a film directed by Davis Guggenheim, which offers a passionate look at one man’s fervent crusade to halt global warming’s progress. That man is former Vice President Al Gore, who changes the course of his political profile to focus on an effort to help save the planet from irrevocable change, in other words to save humanity from what he calls our “planetary emergency”.
Is this the right approach to face the problem of greenhouse gases’ effect on global warming? sdVision put this question to Björn Stigson, well-known as President of the World Business Council for Sustainable Development (WBCSD), which brings together some 190 international companies in a shared commitment to sustainable development through economic growth, ecological balance and social progress.
