Context
The failure of the globe to reach the globally set environmental targets has resulted in an urgent global environmental crisis, including climate change, biodiversity loss, pollution, and the need for transformative solutions.

The environmental crisis is critical  
• Triple Planetary Crisis: According to the UN Secretary-General, the three most pressing global challenges are pollution, biodiversity loss, and climate change.
• Environmental targets not met: Internationally, there are still unmet environmental objectives in the areas of pollution, biodiversity loss, and climate change.
• Repercussions of inaction: The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change asserts that air pollution kills millions of people annually and that global warming has already risen over safe limits.

Innovative Approaches in Crucial Sectors  
• Energy sector: In the energy sector, put the emphasis on energy-efficient technology, clean energy accessibility, and low-GHG emission options like green hydrogen.
• Food Production: It is crucial to practise sustainable agriculture, improve distribution, and reduce food loss and waste in light of rising incomes and population.
• Biodiversity conservation: The commitment to protecting ecosystems, repairing damaged areas, and reducing the threat posed by invasive species.

Political Actions  
• Environmental difficulties are exacerbated by rapid urbanisation; therefore, it is crucial to build sustainable cities, engage the public, and fund green infrastructure.
• Changes in lifestyle: Individual and societal movements towards vegetarianism, millet consumption, and a decrease in dependency on meat.
• Zero-Pollution Action: Stricter regulations, environmentally friendly farming practises, and major reductions in air, water, and soil pollution.
