There's no issue facing humanity, no issue facing the world’s economy, no issue that impacts us as gravely as the state of our environment. With the continued exponential growth of our population and the unchecked use of resources and the resultant unabated creation of waste – i.e. pollution – humanity is running headlong into a catastrophe that threatens our quality of life, our continued prosperity and even our very existence.
