WHY:听Time is running out before our planet reaches multiple 听tipping points. 听Despite decades of efforts to bring about sustainable development, people around the world are facing the tragic consequences of these insufficient or failed experiments. The purpose of TJD is to enable ordinary people around the world to change their own everyday actions, and to mobilize for that 听a broad global social movement for the transformation 听towards sustainable living. The culturally and regionally sensitive bottom-up approach is new and has attracted the attention of thought leaders around the world.
