| Abstract: | It is typical of the man that the first thing that Geoffrey Lipman mentions in our interview is his good friend the late Maurice Strong. “He gave me and so many others like me the inspiration to act,” says Lipman. Strong created the UN “Green and Clean” Roadmap, which is reflected in the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and the Paris Agreement, as well as launching both the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) and The United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). He also played a leading role, as Secretary General of the two trailblazing Earth Summits at Stockholm in 1972 and Rio in 1992, as well as creating an Earth Charter between People and Planet. |
