The sixth Global Environment Outlook was launched in 2019 at the
fourth UN Environment Assembly. It highlighted the ongoing damage
to life and health from pollution and land degradation, and warned
that zoonosis was already accounting for more than 60% of human
infectious diseases. Since then the spread of COVID-19 has
demonstrated the enormous challenges a global pandemic can cause
for health care systems and the economy, as well as revealing
potential environmental benefits of an altered lifestyle. This
Technical Summary synthesizes the science and data in the GEO-6
report to make it accessible to a broad audience of policymakers,
students and scientists. It demonstrates that more urgent and
sustained action is required to address the degradation caused by
our energy, food and waste systems and identifies a variety of
transformational pathways for those seeking far-reaching policies
for environmental and economic recovery. Also available as Open
Access on Cambridge Core.
