The current state of the carbon dioxide crisis cannot be ignored. We believe that the definition of success in the future will extend to include initiatives that keep our planet's resources in mind.

Every year, human activities release more carbon dioxide into the atmosphere than our current natural processes can remove. This subsequently causes the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere to increase.

Carbon dioxide is Earth’s most important greenhouse gas (a gas that absorbs and radiates heat). Unlike oxygen or nitrogen, greenhouse gases absorb heat radiating from the Earth’s surface and re-release it in all directions. Without carbon dioxide, Earth’s natural greenhouse effect would be too weak to keep the average global surface temperature above freezing. By adding more carbon dioxide to the atmosphere, people are supercharging the natural greenhouse effect, causing global temperature to rise.

In just 2021, the global average for carbon dioxide emissions was at a record high of 414.72 parts per million.
