PEACE, JUSTICE & STRONG INSTITUTIONS AND PARTNERSHIP FOR GOALS: SDG16 & SDG17It has been a tumultuous year. Just as we thought we had survived COVID19 (alpha), came delta and omicron. We are still reeling at the prospect of several more variants, each an order of magnitude more potent and devastating than the one before.

That’s an entire New York City added to the planet every month for the next 40 years. And more than two thirds of the expected population of 10 billion will be living in urban areas by the same time. Rapid urbanization places severe strain on fresh water supplies, sewage systems, the living environment and public health. As is often the case, those living in poverty are the most vulnerable. -

LIFE ON LAND AND BELOW WATER: SDG14 & SDG15The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) released its latest report this month and made it clear that the next decade is going to be pivotal in terms of securing the future of our planet. It maintains that the climate crisis is unequivocally caused by human activity and that the direct impacts of climate change are only going to get worse. Hopelessness can often be paralyzing, but the report is clear: we can STILL mitigate what we’re doing – if we act now.
