This document outlines the challenges and opportunities for achieving sustainable development between 2015-2035. Key issues include rising population and economic growth putting pressure on resources, climate change, and poverty. Continuing "business as usual" risks depleting the planet's biocapacity and exacerbating inequality. The document argues for a paradigm shift towards triple bottom line development considering economic, social and environmental factors. Nations must work towards renewable energy, green jobs, inclusive markets, and public-private partnerships to lower footprints and raise human wellbeing within planetary boundaries.

3. EXPECTED GROWTH
1. Population 7 billion 2012 to 9 billion 2050;
2. Gross World Prod. $7tr. 2012 to $200 tr 2050
3. Energy-related CO2 emissions from 13 Giga-
tons 1970 to 50 Gt in 2050; large regions will
surpass 2*C in average annual temperature by
2040 combined with changing wheater pattern;
4. In 1970-2008 Global-Living-Planet Index -30%
Global-Tropical-Index -60%, Human Ecological
Footprints >50% of Bio-capacity;Tropical Fresh
Water Index -70%
5. Indonesia Jawa-Riau-Bali-North Celebes
footrpints exceed Regional Bio-Capacity
2010; 3

4. GLOBAL THREATS OF POVERTY
In a World of 7 billion people (2012):
1. 1 out of 5 persons lives on <$1.25 a day;
2. close to 1 billion go hungry every day;
3. 1.5 billion have no access to electricity;
4. 2.5 billion have no toilets & sanitation facilities;
5. “Intensity of Poverty” as joint distribution of their
deprivation (nutrition, toilet, water, elec-tricity) is
highest in poorest countries;
6. 1.189 million poor are in Middle-Income coun-
tries, 459 million in Low-Income countries;
7. Gini-Coefficient, indicator of inequality is rising
between and within countries; 4

5. “ECONOMIC BUSINESS-AS-USUAL”
1. Corporations generate 60% of annual GWP;
2. Corporate externalities of top 3000 corporations cost
$2.5 tril.=3.5% Global Gross Product
3. Global business practices have made human
ecological footprints > 50% of global bio-capacity;
4. Corporate lobbying spending (US) has risen from
$1.5 bil.(1998) to 3.5 billion (2010);
5. Financial market > real sector market in growth;
6. Increasing Total Debt as % of countries’ GDP by
Financial Institutions, Government, Non-Financial
Business and Households are increasing

6. CRITICAL ISSUES OF
DEVELOPMENT

7. CONVENTIONAL DEVELOPMENT
1. Anthropocentric, disregarding biosphere;
2. Pursuit of indefinite growth with preference for
“more” for human satisfaction;
3. Economic activities are thought of series of
activities guided by invisible hands of market;
4. Production = physyically activity affected by
natural resource, energy and food. Trade, ex-
changes = financial activity of Gov. and Priv.
5. Growth is affected by “future expectations”
revealed through rate of interests influenced
by government & business interventons
7

8. FOCUS OF STRATEGIC ISSUES
Shift time-frame of expected growth from short term
to long term (2015-2035) by interlinking economic-
social-environment to reach for cluster of:
 Quality economic growth with
 Rising Human Development Index and Social
Equity;
 Sustained use of natural resources below the
biological capacity of ecosystem and resource
replenishment;
In a economic-sosial-environmental matrix of
achievements, with each sector acting as a
consraint to the other in the process of
sustainable development
8

9. THE PARADIGM
OF SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT
Moving away from “single economic only track of
development” into “triple economic-social-envi-
ronment (ESE) track of sustainable development:
1. Raising income with value-added of resources
through science and technology;
2. Social development by improving “accessibility
bottlenecks” (economic connectivcity, financial
services, education, health, technology, natural
resources, politics) and empowering civil
society;
3. Maintaining environmental sustainability by
keeping ecological footprints below the bio-
and life support system capacity; 9

HIGHER HUMAN DEVELOPMENT INDEX

12. COMMON BUT DIFFERENTIATED
RESPONSIB ILITIES AMONG NATIONS
COUNTRY: HUM.DEV.INDEX: BIOCAPACITY:
USA very high overshoot high
Australia very high overshoot high
Japan very high overshoot high
China low overshoot low
India low below
Indonesia low below
Afghanistan very low much below

18. REQUIREMENTS FOR
SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT
1. Triangle partnership: business-govt.-civil society;
2. Stages of Political Democracy development with
stages of Sustainable Development;
3. Change indicator of development “from GDP to
Equitable Global Human Wellbeing”;
4. Promote Global Sustainable Development
Partnership in raising among others value added
of renewable sources (Squalene, farmacy) and
“green non-renewable resources development”
(green coal, energy, etc) through human capacity
building in bio-technology;
