Our response to UN 可持续性 Goals
In 2015 the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development with 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) was adopted by all United Nations Member States. Later the same year at the Paris climate conference (COP21) the Paris Agreement on Climate Change came into place. This is the first-ever universal and legally binding global climate deal adopted by 195 countries. The key element for this agreement is to have a global action plan to avoid disastrous changes to our climate, by limiting global warming to 2˚C and continue with efforts to limit it to 1.5˚C.
