We face a climate emergency
We’ve emitted far more greenhouse gas than our planet can handle and urgently need to clean up the mess we’ve made of our atmosphere
Discover why speed matters
The last time our atmosphere held safe levels of carbon dioxide was in 1988 – that’s over 35 years ago.
Even if we achieved zero worldwide emissions today, we'd still have a significant mess to clear up.

Removing 1bn tonnes of greenhouse gas
To meet global net zero we need to remove 10bn tonnes of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere every year by 2050.
So far, combined global efforts have removed just 11.8bn tonnes - we simply have to accelerate our efforts. The first target we’ve set for the Glad community is the removal of 1bn tonnes by 2050.
