Annual UN University report analyses six inter-connected 'tipping points' which have been chosen for their representation of large global issues: accelerating extinctions, groundwater depletion, mountain glaciers melting, space debris, unbearable heat, and uninsurable future.
The report proposes a new framework to classify and discuss the effectiveness of solutions that can help us address the 'tipping points'.
