This year's WED is themed Seven Billion Dreams. One Planet. Consume with Care. It is a challenge for all to re-imagine one's aspirations for a good life that is de-linked from conspicuous consumption. We call on everyone to be aware of how the daily individual consumption habits of seven billion people can have a huge impact on the planet, which is why the power to make change happen is also in our hands.
