RACE TO ZERO

. . . .

Our world in crisis—global climate change, projected sea-level rise, species extinction, resource depletion, environmental degradation, pollution, war, and growing inequalities are just some of the challenges confronting us today.

The greatest challenge we face is in reversing these trends.

. . . . 

"Stabilizing Earth Ecosystems against the backdrop of a heavily industrialized world will require an all hands on deck strategy. In the race towards decarbonizing our global economy there will be no silver-bullet. The goal is to ignite and inspire a plan of action that is both robust and open to change."

Governments, businesses, communities, and individuals all have roles to play in both adapting to the impacts of climate change and reducing greenhouse gas emissions to mitigate its severity. Collaborative efforts at local, national, and global levels are crucial to combat climate change effectively.

EXPO 2030

Since its inception in 1792, The World Fair has awed and inspired an anticipating public. Through the art of leaving no stone left untouched, The World Fair / Expo  have introduced to the world the wonders of invention. From steam engines to mass assembly lines, The World Fair has showcased the world of tomorrow, today. 

Circular Cities 2030 / EXPO 2030 is a proposed World Fair Event that will happen simultaneously in every city, town, community, and region around our world—where, unlike the World Expo's of the past that were site specific, Circular Cities 2030 will have s city-wide, (bio)regional presence.

It Is Now Our Time To Set Into Motion The Next Great Industrial Revolution: 

A Global Circular Economy!

AREA'S OF FOCUS INCLUDE:

International Collaboration: Expo 2030 could provide a unique opportunity for countries to collaborate on climate change mitigation, biodiversity conservation, and resource management. International partnerships forged during the planning and preparation for Expo 2030 could lead to long-term cooperation on global environmental challenges.

Local and Indigenous Knowledge: Expo 2030 could recognize and incorporate the valuable knowledge and practices of indigenous peoples and local communities who have been adapting to their changing environments for generations.

Youth Engagement: Empowering young people to take an active role in climate action could be a central theme. Youth-led initiatives, innovation challenges, and youth forums could help foster a new generation of climate leaders.

Policy Advocacy: Expo 2030 could provide a forum for governments, NGOs, and businesses to advocate for policy changes that support sustainability and regeneration. This could lead to the adoption of new environmental regulations and incentives that work towards accelerating the next great Industrial Revolution, creating jobs and creative opportunities for all Earth citizens.

Green Infrastructure: Hosting Expo 2030 could prompt host cities and countries to invest in green infrastructure projects such as decentralized renewable energy installations, global transportation systems, and rewilding vital eco-systems, stimulating economic growth in a post carbon world.

Sustainable Technologies: Expo 2030 could serve as a hub for showcasing cutting-edge technologies and solutions, including: renewable energy sources, sustainable public transportation systems, waste reduction methods, and regenerative agriculture practices that will promote economic growth in the clean technology sector.

Sustainable Tourism: The event could promote sustainable tourism practices, encouraging visitors to explore the host city and region in an eco-friendly manner. This would not only boost the local economy but also minimize the carbon footprint of Expo-related travel.

Regenerative Agriculture: Expo 2030 could highlight inner-city food security and regenerative agriculture techniques that improve soil health, sequester carbon, and enhance biodiversity. Promoting such practices could benefit both the environment and local agricultural economies. 

Circular Economy: Emphasizing the principles of a circular economy at Expo 2030 could encourage businesses to reduce waste, recycle materials, and design products for longevity. This shift could create economic opportunities in recycling and upcycling industries.

Sustainable Development Goals: Expo 2030 could align with the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and demonstrate how countries and organizations are working toward achieving these goals. 

Resilient Infrastructure Demonstrations: The event could feature the design and construction of resilient and climate-adaptive infrastructure, providing real-world examples of how cities and regions can prepare for climate impacts.

Technology Transfer: Expo 2030 could facilitate the transfer of climate-related technologies and innovations from developed to developing countries. This could help bridge the technological gap and enable all nations to participate effectively in climate mitigation and adaptation efforts.

Legacy Projects: After Expo 2030 concludes, the infrastructure and innovations showcased will continue to benefit host city and regions, contributing to long-term economic and environmental regeneration.

Expo 2030 has the potential to become the global catalyst for climate change mitigation and adaptation measures by providing a collaborative platform for nations, organizations, and individuals to exchange ideas, showcase innovations, and commit to concrete actions. It can inspire a shared sense of urgency and responsibility to address climate change, and its legacy can continue to drive climate action well into the future.
