2. Sustainable Development Goals
• The idea of sustainable development, as understood within the
UN system, emerged from the Brundtland Commission (the World
Commission on Environment and Development) in 1987.
• The concept of sustainable development was emphasized by the
United Nations Conference on Environment and Development
(UNCED), which is also known as the Earth Summit in 1992.
• They proposed a tripartile approach to development which is built
around economic prosperity, social welfare and environmental
protection – all three of which, they claimed, could, should and
must be pursued conjointly.
• They also proposed goals of intergenerational equity and
sustainable consumption – principles intended to ensure that
environmental outcomes affecting future generations should not
be damaged irrevocably (or “unsustainably”) by short-term
policies and practices.

3. • The Sustainable Development Goals were adopted by all United
Nations Member States in 25th September 2015 as a universal call
to action to end poverty and protect the planet by 2030.
• They are built on the principle of “leaving no one behind”.
• The SDGs replace the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs)
which had started a global effort in 2000 to tackle the indignity of
poverty.
• The MDGs established measurable, universally agreed objectives
for tackling extreme poverty and hunger, preventing deadly
diseases, and expanding primary education to all children, among
other development priorities.
• The 17 Sustainable Development Goals and 169 targets are
integrated and indivisible and balance the three dimensions of
sustainable development: the economic, social, and
environmental.

needs of the present without
compromising the ability of future
generations to meet their own
needs”, 1987 Bruntland

Nations.

22. Environment
Sustainability

23. Introduction
• Environmental sustainability addresses the
interconnected nature of global challenges.
• It ensures the health and preservation of
ecosystems, including forests, oceans, wetlands,
and biodiversity.
• It provides a framework for addressing the
challenges in an integrated, interlinked and
coordinated manner with a holistic approach,
fostering collaboration between all stakeholders.

24. SDGs and environment sustainability
SDG 6 (Clean Water and Sanitation) :
It emphasizes the importance of ensuring clean water
and sanitation for all. It aims to address water scarcity,
water pollution, and inadequate sanitation practices.
Access to clean water and sanitation is critical for
environmental sustainability, as well as human health
and ecosystem integrity.
SDG 7 (Affordable and Clean Energy) :
It focuses on ensuring access to affordable, reliable,
sustainable, and modern energy for all. It promotes
renewable energy sources and energy efficiency, which
are crucial for reducing greenhouse gas emissions and
mitigating climate change. Shifting towards clean energy
is essential for achieving long-term environmental
sustainability.

25. SDGs and environment sustainability
SDG 11 (Sustainable Cities and Communities):
It emphasizes the need to make cities and human settlements
inclusive, safe, resilient, and sustainable. It addresses issues
such as urbanization, air pollution, waste management, and
access to green spaces. Creating sustainable cities and
communities is crucial for environmental sustainability, as the
majority of the global population resides in urban areas.
SDG 12 (Responsible Consumption and Production):
It aims to promote sustainable consumption and production
patterns. It encourages resource efficiency, waste reduction,
sustainable management of chemicals and wastes, and the
implementation of environmentally sound practices.
Responsible consumption and production are fundamental
for minimizing environmental impacts and promoting
sustainable development.

26. SDGs and environment sustainability
SDG 13 (Climate change):
It focuses on urgent action to combat climate change and
its impacts. It calls for reducing greenhouse gas emissions,
increasing resilience to climate-related disasters, and
promoting climate adaptation measures. Achieving this
goal is vital for the long-term environmental sustainability
of the planet.
SDG 14 (Life Below Water) and 15 (Life on Land):
They are dedicated to the conservation and sustainable use of
marine and terrestrial ecosystems, respectively. They address
issues such as marine pollution, overfishing, deforestation,
habitat loss, and biodiversity conservation. Protecting and
restoring these ecosystems are essential for environmental
sustainability and the well-being of both human and non-
human species.

27. SDGs and environment sustainability
SDG 17 (Partnerships for the Goals):
It recognizes the importance of global
partnerships in achieving all the SDGs, including
environmental sustainability. Collaboration
between governments, businesses, civil society,
and other stakeholders is essential for mobilizing
resources, sharing knowledge, and
implementing effective environmental
initiatives.

28. India’s way towards environment
sustainability
• India co-founded Solar Alliance with France to promote renewable energy.
• The Swachh Bharat Abhiyan focuses on solid waste management, cleanliness and
sanitation.
• Govt. initiative, Jal Shakti Abhiyan focuses on water conservation, rainwater
harvesting, and ground water recharge.
• The govt. has also launched Namami Gange program to rejuvenate and clean the
river Ganga.
• Govt. initiatives like Krishi Vigyan Kendra (KVK), Pramparagat Krishi Vikas Yojna
(PKVY) to promote organic farming, soil health management, and agroecology
practices.
• GOI has restructured National Rural Drinking Water Programme (NRDWP) into Jal
Jeevan Mission (JJM) to provide Functional Household Tap Connection (FHTC) to
every rural household. i.e, Har Ghar Nal Se Jal (HGNSJ) by 2024.
• Under Atal Mission for Rejuvenation and Urban Transformation (AMRUT)
Mission, sewarage & septage management projects were launched by MoHUA.

29. Challenges
• 62.5% of waste water in urban India remains
untreated or partially treated.
• Out of 33000 MLD of waste generated only
7000 MLD Is collected and treated under
Ganga Action Plan and Yamuna Action Plan.

31. Enzootic
Enzootic animal diseases are indigenous to or always present
in particular areas or among particular species of animals.
Enzootic diseases are liable to become epizootic (even
epidemic) under certain circumstances, in which case many
animals are attacked and the disease may spread over a large
area or over an entire continent. Enzootic animal diseases
raise the risk of infection in man if they are zoonotic, that is to
say communicable and common to man and animals.
Example: Rabies is enzootic in Europe; braxy and louping ill
are enzootic among sheep in Scotland and the north of
England; anthrax is enzootic among horses in Asia Minor; foot-
and-mouth disease is enzootic in many tropical countries; and
rinderpest is currently enzootic or epizootic in most tropical
African countries.

32. Epizootic animal diseases affect many animals in a large area
at the same time, and spread with great rapidity. Epizootic
diseases are generally contagious from one animal to another
but may be spread by intermediate agents such as forage,
straw, insects, fertilizers, contaminated water, movements of
game or wild animals and bird migration, or sea seasonal
factors. Insect-borne diseases have a higher propensity to
become epizootic, especially when the insects are numerous,
such as with flies and trypanosomiasis in Africa.
Examples: Foot and mouth disease, Epizootic lymphangitis,
African trypanosomiasis etc.
