Healthy Planet Action Coalition
Founded in 2021, the Healthy Planet Action Coalition (HPAC) is an international group of over 200 participants from over a dozen countries advocating urgent action to restore a safe and healthy planet. Our motto is:
Cool, reduce, and remove to restore the climate. Later is too late!
We advocate the world community urgently come together to carry out an equitable, science-based plan of action that includes what HPAC calls, the Climate Triad:
- directly cooling the climate through sunshine reflection, ecosystem restoration, and other safe and effective means,
- accelerating emission reductions, and
- deploying large scale removal of atmosphere carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gasses.
The goal of these actions, along with enhanced and transformative adaptation and regeneration measures, is to reduce the average global temperature increase to well below 1°C in the coming decades. Doing so will sharply reduce weather extremes, slow or stop the collapse of key ecosystems, and help ensure a livable planet for humanity and the natural world. Please watch a short video about these ideas.
We welcome and encourage participation in HPAC through our online discussion group and our working groups. We frequently host some of the most knowledgeable scientists, technologists, decision-makers, and climate advocates on the planet to engage in discussions on direct climate cooling, greenhouse gas removal, global governance, emissions reduction, equity and justice, ecosystem restoration, and other cutting-edge climate issues.
