Margarete Sachs-Israel (@UNICEF) presents stiking numbers on education @WorldNFEForum:
> 250 mln young people out of school
> 260 mln NEETs

We need action!
We are facing a global #education crisis. Access itself is not sufficient, the quality of learning is also crucial. In a rapidly changing world, how can we make sure young people are equipped to solve the problems of tomorrow? @UNYouthEnvoy at #NFEForum

Today is World #OvershootDay
A day that sadly happens earlier and earlier each year.
That means that today we’ve globally used up the worlds annual resources. The rest of the year we are stealing from future generations and poorer parts of the world.
29 July 2019 & it's #OvershootDay.
🌐 We are currently exploiting our planet 1.75 times faster than its ecosystem can regenerate. 🏭✈️🤕
1.75 planets per year.
1.75 planets per year.
1.75 planets per year.
