The founder of the energy and fuel company St1 Mika Anttonen says that getting our planet back on track requires radical approaches, systemic changes and a global carbon market.

"A global carbon market is an exemplary solution. The producer of carbon dioxide would pay to have the carbon they emit recovered from the atmosphere."

Carbon sinks could be established especially on the African continent.
