• for: downscaled earth system boundaries, downscaled planetary boundaries, TPF

• for: recommendation - replace SDG with downscaled earth system boundaries / doughnut economics

• recommendation

  • recommend syncing local actions to global impacts via downscaled earth system boundaries instead of just SDGs due to the urgent nature of the climate crisis

• for: question - topics - downscaled earth system boundaries and micro-economies

• question

  • what kinds of questions need to be asked in order to align the communitiy's work to stay within downscaled earth system boundaries?
