After years of dedicated work and collaboration (from August 2017 through June 2023), we have made the difficult decision to officially close down Humanity 2050 as an operating nonprofit. We will, however, keep this website as a way of summarizing our efforts and pointing interested parties to our continuing work that will, in the future, be described on Dr. Carl Pabo’s personal website.

Humanity 2050 was driven by a sincere commitment to addressing global challenges by empowering human thought. We are incredibly proud of the progress we’ve made, the connections we’ve fostered, and the insights we’ve gained.

While we needed to close Humanity 2050 (due to a lack of outside funding needed to support the cumbersome legal requirements of running a private operating foundation), we believe that the knowledge and insights we’ve generated should continue to serve as a source of inspiration and information for individuals, organizations, and researchers striving to make a positive impact on the world’s most pressing issues. As a result, we have decided to keep our website live, ensuring that our ideas and methods for tackling complexity remain accessible to anyone seeking innovative solutions to global challenges.

We are immensely grateful to everyone who has been a part of our journey – especially our dedicated team members and collaborators who supported us along the way. Your contributions have been instrumental in shaping our mission and vision.

Moving forward, we encourage you to explore our white papers and blog. We hope that these materials will continue to offer fresh perspectives, spark new ideas, and encourage ongoing conversations about ways to ensure a livable human future. In addition, we have conducted extensive research and analysis on the operational challenges of implementing climate engineering plans. Though this report is unpublished, we are delighted to share it with anyone interested in this work.

Humanity 2050’s founder Dr. Carl O. Pabo is continuing — as actively and passionately as ever! — his work on the future of thought, the crisis of complexity and challenges of the human future. He will be updating his website soon so you can follow that work at carlpabo.com.
