Race to Net Zero - Africa
On February 10th, 2023, British ultra cyclist Nicholas Bourne will attempt to break Mark Beaumont's world record of 41 days, 10 hours and 22 minutes for the fastest human powered journey from Cairo to Cape Town. This journey of over 10,375 km will take him through landscapes at the leading edge of global climate change, many of which are teetering on the brink of ecosystem collapse. Ark2030’s Race to Net Zero is building networks of individuals, communities and businesses that are committed to reversing the impact humans have had on the natural environment over the past 200 years.
Ark2030's mission is to reverse the climate crisis
This is being achieved through the restoration of the 500m Hectares of Global Ecosystems destroyed since the beginning of the industrial revolution. By investing in organisations that have the knowledge and experience to reverse climate change and the collapse of ecosystems Ark2030 has developed the roadmap to a sustainable future.
Every Programme around the world is designed with multi stakeholder collaboration to ensure that the interests of nature, bio diversity, communities and the Sustainable Development Goals are considered for each ecosystem that we are seeking to protect, restore and regenerate.
We are all involved in the 'Race To Net Zero'.
Creating resilient communities in the era of climate change
As part of Ark2030's Global Village program the Safari Simbaz are building a 100% sustainable, zero carbon residential centre in Mweiga Kenya created by a global community of cyclists to inspire, educate and create economic opportunity through the power of bicycles.
Please join us and help solve society's greatest challenge and secure a habitable home for future generations.
