The infrastructure to maintain the world's critical features from a human perspective was built into a very robust network database model decades ago. See http://www.cpni.gov.uk/about/cni/
The same infrastructure now has much more detailed images and data which is already put to some positive use in enforcing deforestation violations.
Add in our new knowledge of the paths and dynamics of the life our planet supports and those who ignore future disaster in favour of immediate self indulgence could be identified and attacked until they behaved.
It seems that the whole world has chosen to ignore the imminent demise of our ecology perhaps because individuals who do act tend to suffer.
Governments' policies are dictated by their need for funding and that means that the super rich oligarchs who hold 99.9% of the worlds assets must be obeyed even if medium term disaster is obviously a consequence.
To reverse the process requires radical action that remains ethical by doing no bodily harm to the global oligarchs but does cripple their revenue streams whilst refusing to supply services.
Inaction will lead to famine, energy crises, lack of clean water and devastating effects on our fellow flora and fauna.
20 years ago we knew this and now some impacts cannot be avoided.
Global sustainable communities are the only solution. I fear that mankind's selfish genes will kill our whole world long before sustainable living is established.
Research for yourselves if you doubt the need to address our global crisis
