How to develop the sustainable development
Answers
Answer:
Sustainable development is a societal rather than an environmental challenge. Substantial advances in human capacity are needed through improvements of education and healthcare – resulting, among others, in higher income and better environmental decisions.
Responsible consumption and production cut across several of the other transitions, allowing us to do more with fewer resources – we need to adopt a circular economy approach and reduce demand.
It is possible to decarbonise the energy system around 2050 while providing clean and affordable energy for all – including through energy efficiency, more renewables and electrification.
Achieving access to nutritional food and clean water for all, while protecting the biosphere and the oceans, requires more efficient and sustainable food systems – for example by increasing agricultural productivity and reducing meat consumption.
Smart cities: Transforming our settlement patterns will benefit the world population and the environment– such as through ‘smart’ infrastructure, decent housing and high connectivity.
Digital revolution: Science, technology, and innovation need to support sustainable development. Much depends on the way the world will put the Information Technology revolution to use – continuing present trends or inverting them by asserting societal control over them.
