Sustainability 2
Background to the Issues
The campaign 350.org has been developed for addressing the increasing problems due to
climate change. This is the main problem that the campaign aims to address as it leads to
flooding, the risk of catastrophic, a threat to food production, and many other environmental
issues. It is due to these different effects that the campaign 350.org has initiated work for
reducing the impact of climate change. But, the main focus of the campaign is to address the
different climate issues which are emerging due to the excessive use of fossil fuels. Fossil fuels
increase the use of non-renewable energy, which is the main cause of climate change (Burkart,
2017). The 350.org is developing an international movement with the help of ordinary people,
with the main focus of reducing the use of fossil fuels in the community and replacing them with
renewable energy solutions.
There are three main goals and objectives of the campaign 350.org, to address the
problem of climate change. The first goal of the campaign is to make a fast transition to
renewable energy. The campaign main focus is to increase the use of renewable energy to 100%
in society. The campaign aims at creating a clean energy economy by utilizing community-led
energy solutions. The second objective of the campaign is to ban all fossil fuel projects. The
campaign goal is to ban and stop all the projects associated with coal, gas, and oil in the future.
The campaign utilizes community resistance and local resolutions for stopping all the fossil fuel
projects, for a better future. The third objective of the campaign is to cut the finances of the fossil
fuel industry. The campaign has decided to cut and cancel the social license that fossil fuel
companies require to conduct their business. In addition to this, the campaign aims at defunding
the fossil fuel companies, by reducing their sponsors and other sources from where they receive
financial aids (Höök and Tang, 2013).
