[OSGeo-Discuss] A letter to fellow citizens of Earth

[Suchith Anand]

Dear colleagues,


In 1970, the Menton Message, was crafted in Menton, France during an environmental conference. The conference produced a statement to “Our 3.5 billion neighbours”, published in the UNESCO Courier in 1971, and eventually signed and presented by 2200 scientists as a letter alongside the U.N. Summit on the Human Environment in Stockholm.



In 2022, fifty years on from the UN Summit, the International Science Council, Future Earth and the Stockholm Environment Institute convened an Expert Writing Group of natural scientists, social scientists, engineers and humanities scholars to modernize and extend the historical call on the eve of Stockholm +50.


This is their letter https://science4stockholm50.world

We must become good ancestors and better neighbours.

Best wishes


Suchith
