What is Sustainable development & how to live sustainably ?

Many of the challenges facing humankind, such as climate change, water scarcity, inequality and hunger, can only be resolved at a global level and by promoting sustainable development and circular economy: a commitment to social progress, environmental balance and economic growth.

The rise in temperature, aggravated by human action, has a negative impact on the lives of people, ecosystems and the economy. Sea levels rise, oceans warm, desertification damages crops and water scarcity worsens expectations of progress in the most disadvantaged regions, among other effects, all interconnected.

In 2015, world leaders agreed to 17 Global Goals (officially known as the Sustainable Development Goals or SDGs). It's now seven years on, and we have more work than ever to do. These goals have the power to create a better world by 2030, by ending poverty, fighting inequality and addressing the urgency of climate change. Guided by the goals, it is now up to all of us, governments, businesses, civil society and the general public to work together to build a better future for everyone.
