Green Plans are comprehensive, integrated management strategies designed to achieve environmental and economic sustainability, replacing traditional single-issue policies.

These plans have been implemented worldwide, including New Zealand, the Netherlands, and other European Union countries. Advocate Huey Johnson has introduced them to parts of the United States, believing they are crucial for managing Climate Change.

The Netherlands' National Environmental Policy Plan (NEPP), adopted in 1989, is the longest-running example. Despite facing severe environmental problems like congestion and heavy industry, the country achieved significant recovery in under 20 years through its implementation.

Green colonialism impacts the Indigenous Sámi of northern Europe, with large-scale renewable energy and conservation projects built on ancestral lands without full consent. Wind farms, “green” mineral mining, and hydroelectric dams disrupt traditional livelihoods like reindeer herding. Framed as sustainable, these projects often dispossess Sámi, marginalizing their knowledge, rights, and self-determination for climate action. This issue was investigated by Tristen Taylor, Ingrid Gercama, and Nathalie Bertrams in “Green Colonialism: How New Mines in Sweden Threaten the Sámi.”

An image shows Sámi reindeer herder and joik singer Lars-Ánte Kuhmunen in a corral near Rensjön, Sweden, photographed by Nathalie Bertrams. Kuhmunen's 2005 album, "Birrasis," produced by Georg Buljio, is used with permission.

Humans extract nearly 100 million barrels of oil daily, plus equivalent coal and natural gas. The IPCC mandates halving this fossil fuel flow by 2030 and eliminating it by 2050 to avert irreversible climate damage. This energy transition demands scalable, zero-carbon solutions.

Green ammonia offers a promising path. This carbon-free fuel is made simply from air, water, and renewable electricity. With billions in announced investments, led by the Middle East and Australia, green ammonia is rapidly emerging as a "new 21st-century oil," poised to transform our world.

Zac Cesaro, an R&D engineer at Siemens Energy and Oxford DPhil candidate, is an expert in green ammonia production and use, having operated the world’s first demonstrator. This talk was given at a TEDx event.
