GLOBAL CAUSE believes that our team-oriented approach should be a model for responding to the challenges of global warming. Broad based global cooperation is especially needed in developing nations with an urgent need to grow their economies.

People everywhere want a better future for themselves and their families. They want dignity, self-esteem and respect from others. Sustainable development and the elimination of poverty are urgent priorities.

Addressing the problem of global warming successfully in developing nations like China requires collaborative approaches that reduce greenhouse gas emissions while supporting necessary economic growth. By creating economic opportunity, we increase the willingness of people to learn new ways and try new things.

To build acceptance for change, we must show that it can be the path to a brighter future. Working with our Chinese colleagues to save the giant panda from global warming and other environmental threats is a good place to start.
