About
In September 2015 the heads of state, and government representatives met at the United Nations Headquarters and collectively agreed on a universal political agenda, achieving 17 Sustainable Development Goals and 169 sub-targets.
The goals are related to:
People (ending poverty and hunger), Planet, Prosperity, Peace and Partnership.
The agenda envisions a future free from poverty, hunger, and disease. Tremendous progress has been made in this decade. Since we attempted to achieve the Millennium Development Goals, yet this progress has not been inclusive of everyone equally, nor achieved at the same rates geographically.
How can we accomplish the Sustainable Development Goals (SDG’s) goals most effectively, on time, and what would it take to achieve the goals simultaneously? What amount of decarbonization, food production, yield improvement, air pollution control, renewables, and investments are needed to develop in order to accomplish the SDGs by 2050?
