SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT GOALS
SDG 12: RESPONSIBLE CONSUMPTION AND PRODUCTION
“Much of the world’s economy is based around producing things for consumption. This drives the engine of industry. If we want the world to develop sustainably, we need to understand how to be more responsible at both ends of this cycle. This means promoting resource and energy efficiency, having a sustainable infrastructure, and providing access to basic services for all.”
