Answer to Question #221327 in Human geography for reet

Question

 In your view, are the Sustainable Development Goals realistic? Attainable? Worth striving toward? Justify your position.

Answer 1

In my humble opinion, the Sustainable Development Goals are realistic because we can set them and some people change their views on the world accordingly. However, whether the goals are attainable is a different question because it implies changing the world. People are imperfect creatures and to achieve common goals we need to sacrifice, and not everybody will agree to cut consumption of resources for common good. But the Sustainable Development Goals are a good direction pointer.
