United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (UNSDGs)

“We are using the equivalent of 1.6 Earths to maintain our way of life.

A sustainable world is one where people can escape poverty and enjoy decent work without harming the earth’s essential ecosystems and resources; where people can stay healthy and get the food and water they need; where everyone can access clean energy that doesn’t contribute to climate change; where women and girls are afforded equal rights and equal opportunities.” Source: United Nations
