For example, under climate change, atmospheric concentrations of GHGs seems to be increasing to levels that are likely to push global temperatures to more than 2°C above the pre-industrial average, which is the agreed target for planetary well-being . The bulletin advocates new commitments and ways to deal with persistent environmental problems, including the formulation of clear, numerical environmental targets and better data collection to track changes.
