Beryll Foundation- The Future We Want

[Beryll Foundation]

The Kenya’s population of more than 40 million is likely to increase to close 100 million by 2050. The demand for diminishing natural resources is growing. Income gaps are widening. Sustainability calls for a decent standard of living for everyone today without compromising the needs of future generations.

This means finding better ways of doing things. Such as: How can we help people move out of poverty and get good jobs, while protecting the environment? How can we provide access to clean energy for everyone, and make sure that the energy we produce doesn’t contribute to climate change? How can we make sure that everyone can get the water, food and nutrition they need? How can we shape our cities so that everyone can enjoy a decent quality of life? How can we build better transportation systems that allow us all to get where we want to go, without causing too much congestion and pollution? How can we make sure that our oceans are healthy and that marine life is not threatened by pollution and climate change? How can we make sure that our communities are resilient in the face of natural disasters? Solving these challenges is a start to building the future we want.
