Global Goals: Every Achievement Counts

There has never been a problem with the resources; The problems lie within distribution. While this may sound contradictory to what many would choose to believe, there is some truth in it. We don't need rocket science to illustrate the situation. Simply look around and you will find that in certain areas of any big city, there are people and businesses who are wasting tonnes of food on a daily basis while at the other part of the same city, many could be still starving or trying hard just to make ends meet. The problem is, this is just the tip of the iceberg. What if we explore further into areas other than food wastage, such as consumption of natural resources and allocation of manpower? Had things been optimized to its full potential or there exist loopholes draining the resources that would eventually sink the entire ship? We only have one planet to live on and if it's not in our good hands to secure the future for our children and generations to come, then in whose custody and responsibilities shall this be? There are 5 main sections in this book. Sustainability is the underlying principle that connects all relevant elements presented in the content. We start with exploring sustainable development from a holistic view. Then we check out where the world is heading from both the east and west perspectives, led by two prominent super powers. While a journey of a thousand miles starts with a single step, equipped with the right tools and having a sound strategy is not less important. As digital transformation is happening at every corner of the world, it is vital to check out the basics so that things are aligned and up to date. Go along the waves, and we save ourselves a lot of hustles. Finally, it's the effective resource management that we are after. It shall be well presented in our near future through materialized social, economy, and environmental achievements. That would be when we successfully actualize the distribution of resources in a fairer, open and transparent manner. The progress and achievements shall be supported by hard facts and numbers, with the assistance of state-of-the-art technologies as we collaboratively progress towards a better and sustainable future.
