With only six years left to meet our global biodiversity goals, now is the time to translate ambition into action. Bloom 24 – held alongside COP 16 – offers a unique opportunity for global business leaders to learn first-hand about protecting and restoring nature.
Bloom 24 in Cali, Colombia, is an interactive event involving 60 trail-blazing speakers who will explore emerging trends, take stock of new technologies, and work to accelerate the speed and scale of impact.
To be held alongside COP 16 on October 24-25, 2024 in Cali, Colombia, this event promises the presence of a vibrant community of thought leaders and practitioners.
This event is not going to follow any traditional panel discussion format. Rather, it offers an immersive experience designed by biodiversity experts for 500 invitation-only sustainability professionals instead.

It is with regret that I observe that your organisation does not recognise the need for humanity to return within the carrying capacity of Earth, and does not recognise the threat posed by pronatalism and growth economics. Until humanity return within the carrying capacity of Earth, nothing that we do is sustainable. Climate change is a symptom of ecosystems collapse caused by cultural patterns that perpetuate overconsumption and overpopulation. Every day we are escalating mass extinction and ecosystems collapse. Please consider reporting on the proposed UN Charter for Ecological Justice, an aspiration to peacefully and equitably shrink both the global economy and population size until we return within the carrying capacity of Earth. The insights from I=PAT warn us of the dangers of applying growth economics during ecosystems collapse. Please check out my article explaining how to calculate Earth's carrying capacity, and offering suggestions how we might peacefully and equitably return within half the biocapacity of Earth; this would allow biodiversity to recover from the onslaught and loss of habitat that we are inflicting right now. https://app.wedonthavetime.org/posts/5b7db59b-a9d0-4ba0-b727-dfb0c6ee7b20 I urge your organisation to challenge anyone expressing aspirations to continue to grow the global economy and population; instead please explain to your influencers and partners that humanity must reduce its global needs to within half the biocapacity of Earth before we can achieve sustainability.

Looking forward to hear about how tech can be a part of protecting biodiversity.
