Why Factor 10?

Globally we are emitting 10 times more greenhouse gasses than our world ecosystems can absorb and keep our climate in balance. In order to restore this balance we need to reduce our emissions by a factor 10.

Futureproofed wants to help achieving a factor 10 more efficiency in dealing with energy and raw materials by 2050. This is necessary to compete with the threats of climate change.

To achieve this, we will need to make choices. No, there is no need to go back in history: factor 10 is a choice for a more attractive, affordable, profitable and comfortable future with a higher standard of living for more people.


Climate change is an opportunity to implement solutions that maximise profits, ecology and society leading us towards a sustainable world.
