Well, the best estimate is that we’ve got fifty years before we reach the threshold for a catastrophic rise in global temperatures.  The CPH helps to do that - it’s basically a program that helps people reduce emissions, make them sustainable, so they don’t waste as much natural resources, and so on.  In addition, if we all just stopped using fossil fuels, that would help reduce carbon emissions drastically.  So the hope is that the CPH will lead to a better future for our species.

What's the CPH?

The CPH is a program that will help people help themselves.  It’s the climate change program - it’s a method for solving climate change.

And what do you mean by a "catastrophic rise" in global temperature? Hasn't the global temperature always changed? Humans and animals adapt.
