"2019 United Nations General Assembly: World Leaders Must Act Now to Restore Nature for A Secure Economic Future"
by Roxburgh, Toby, Thomas Hertel, Steve Polasky, Justin Johnson, Uris Lantz Baldos and Chris Nootenboom


Abstract
As world leaders take their seats at the 74th UN General Assembly in New York in September 2019, the fate of current and future generations will be in their hands. The world’s economies, businesses and our own well-being all depend on nature. But from climate change, extreme weather and flooding, to water shortages, soil erosion and species extinctions, evidence shows that our planet is changing faster than at any other time in history. The way we feed, fuel and finance ourselves is destroying the life-support systems on which we depend, risking global economic devastation.
