Abstract
The beginning of the XXIst Century has been defined by a succession of critical events, ranging from the societal ones to the economical and the environmental crises. Such acceleration of multiple crises is far from natural, and is a direct consequence of the overshoot of many sustainability limits all at once. In this talk we will analyze the current situation, the current trends and what would be required to really attain sustainability before we reach a tipping point.
