AMPLIFYING IMPACT by Dave McQuarrie
S OUR LATEST Sustainable Impact Report ( see the SIR insert , page 11 ) shows , HP has made progress that we are proud of in combating climate change , safeguarding human rights , and increasing access to life-improving technology . Yet even with our contributions and the efforts of countless others , the world remains precariously out of balance .
The latest United Nations Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change ( IPCC ) provides an important reminder : “ Climate change is a threat to human well-being and planetary health . There is a rapidly closing window of opportunity to secure a liveable and sustainable future for all .”
If there ’ s anything we ’ ve learned since the start of this decade , it ’ s that our planet and people are wholly intertwined . We must also strive for greater social justice , more gender and racial equality , and close the vast digital divide . Then we must go a step further , helping the planet and its inhabitants not just to survive but also to thrive . J
