    In the latest podcast episode, we broke down the planetary boundaries -- a concept that presents a set of nine planetary boundaries within which humanity can continue to develop and thrive for generations to come, but once passed, signal a concern for the Earth's ability to cope with humanity's demand. This Earth Day, you can take action by changing what you do at home and also begin to lobby for change.
