A Safe Climate by 2050
Climate restoration, explained in three and a half minutes.
Climate Restoration: The Leading Edge of Climate Action
The Foundation for Climate Restoration (F4CR) is dedicated to restoring a safe and stable climate by 2050. By “safe and stable” we mean the climate humans have evolved and thrived in, with CO2 levels below 300 parts per million.
There’s no denying that storms, floods, droughts, heatwaves, and wildfires are becoming more destructive, taking an ever-growing toll on lives, livelihoods, and ecosystems. Yet, the current goal of climate action focuses only on avoiding the worst effects of climate change. Many people don’t realize that simply reducing emissions doesn’t address the vast amount of CO2 already in the atmosphere – the source of most of today’s climate chaos.
What if, instead of just aiming to avoid catastrophe, we focused on restoring a safe climate for future generations?
What if the shift we need is one from merely lessening disaster to creating a future where both humanity and nature can thrive?
What if we already have the tools to restore the climate by mimicking nature’s methods to reduce atmospheric CO2?
Our vision is the climate restored by 2050
Our mission is to generate the global alignment for climate restoration by 2030, so that climate restoration becomes the overarching goal of all climate action.
We can no longer settle for merely reducing harm; we must call for true restoration, creating a future where both people and the planet can thrive. The time to shift our focus is now. F4CR, along with our members, are changing the conversation to end the climate crisis.
You can help!
About Us
The Foundation for Climate Restoration (F4CR) is an innovative non-profit dedicated to making climate restoration an idea whose time has come. We want the climate restored by 2050, and we’re working to make that the goal of all climate action.
Many people feel resigned about the climate, assuming it will only get worse. Climate restoration—the idea that we can and must restore a historically safe climate—remains relatively new. Achieving it depends on more people understanding its possibility and demanding a safe climate for our children and future generations.
F4CR is building the support necessary to restore a climate that’s safe for both humanity and the natural world. Our approach includes public information, communication, and advocacy.
