Greenprint 2020 |
We're a group of over 4,500 16-25 year olds taking action on climate change. Together we have created the Greenprint 2020 which outlines our vision of a sustainable future, and now we are working towards achieving it! Join us: greenprint2020@globalactionplan.org.uk |

Greenprint 2020 and v2424 intern, Julian Andres, shares his vision of a sustainable 2020.
The future is cleaner, greener and brighter. Fossil fuels are history, there are now renewable energies for all aspects of life from the home to the workplace, transportation and public places.
There is less pollution in the air and water so people can breathe cleaner air and drink cleaner water. Health issues that were caused by pollution or gasses and chemicals in the air and water are now a distant memory.
There are environment awareness programmes to teach people how and why to take care of the environment, in addition laws have been made for those people who don’t recycle, are energy efficient or vandalise and damage the environment and public spaces.
Foods are healthier due to people growing their own produce. Food is more organic, healthier and fresher and there are less harmful chemicals. People recycle much more and collect their own water in rain butts.
Due to advancements in technology vehicles are made from sustainable materials that can be recycled and are easier to make. Roads and pavements are made from durable and recyclable materials. Paper is seen much less as most things are now viewed and seen on screens, projectors or personal handhelds so no more trees are being cut.
Airplanes are energy efficient as they run on alternative powers or hybrid energies.
As a result of public awareness of environmental issues there are more greener areas, plants and trees to make the air cleaner and purer, more care is taken for those ‘green spaces’ or ‘eco zones’ to keep them maintained and protected. The economic climate of the world has improved because of renewable alternative energies. By 2020 the CO2 emissions and earths temperatures are on a steady decrease due to the changes in fuels to alternative energies.
