She talks about the urgency to address the triple planetary crisis - biodiversity loss, climate crisis, and pollution. It is a loud appeal to the human conscience to amend our ways and love our surroundings more to protect our families and our home planet. The listeners are also enlightened about the need to bring about a balance between economic growth and climate action. Our idea of ‘development’ needs to change; our idea of what ‘economic growth’ means needs to change.
