Community service in place of one year at university
Ask any current student or recent graduate what they achieved in their first year of study and an alarmingly high proportion will struggle to give you an answer. My proposal for OFP is that this year should be substituted for a year of community service.

Climate Change
Human Impact Our single species has had momentous impact on the planet. More than 40 per cent of the primary productivity of the land surface has now been sequestered by humans and, with our population set to increase to 9,000 million during the century, the trend is towards even greater sequestration. Inevitably, our planet will become impoverished as species get squeezed out and disappear. Indeed, in our efforts to channel the sum of life’s activity for our own use, we have disrupted the web of life, eliminating competitors when they stand in our way and through the use of technology becoming the most powerful predators of resources that the Earth has ever seen. That way of thinking and behaving is represented in our economic systems such that we consume natural resources as if there were no limits, as if the bounties of Nature would continue for ever. Whatever resource we look at, fresh water, forests and minerals, we see growth of consumption doubling every 30 years or so. That exponential growth indicates that during every successive doubling of consumption we are actually consuming more of that resource than has even been consumed before.

Memorialising Biodiversity Loss: a Project for Europe
The Sixth Mass Extinction is underway, and few people understand or care. We should at least acknowledge what we have done, learn from our mistakes, reduce the scale of the damage, and understand how to treat the world better in future. The Biodiversity Memorial would encourage the growth of awareness and understanding among peoples and down the generations.
