For the first time in the history of humankind, global goals exist that guide our future. The UN’s 2015 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) provide a detailed framework for public, private, and civil society actors globally to bring about sig-nificant and transformative change towards a world that works for 100 percent of humanity and the planet as a whole. The SDGs are meant to bring about a more prosperous, equitable, and sustainable world for all, in which people and nature can thrive. They have been created in a process of broad intergovernmental agree-ments resulting from extensive stakeholder consultations, and are aspirational and comprehensive. These goals are global, valid for all countries and show that the world is an interconnected place that all people need to take care of. They focus on globally and locally challenging issues such as, among many others, climate change, environmental degradation, food insecurity, inadequate health care, unequal edu-cation, gender inequality, insufficient water and sanitation, non-renewable energy, unemployment, unsustainable human settlements or destructive consumption and production patterns.All of these challenges are examples of dysfunctional socio-ecological systems. They have emerged out of an ignorance towards the needs of our life support system that takes care of people and planet. More recently, the public attention to the climate emergency and biodiversity loss (captured in SDGs 13 on “Climate Action”, SDG 14 on “Life below Water”, and SDG 15 on “Life on Land”), increasingly suggests that the damages human societies have done to the world approach a crossroads, calling for significant collective action to change a dangerous trajectory. This is not the task of an enlightened few, but everybody will need to get involved, at all levels of the global soci-ety, in all cultures and regions, and across all societal sectors. The next 15 to 20 years will have a decisive impact – more than in any period before – on the conditions of life on Earth. The rising awareness about the urgency of dealing with climate change is symptomatic of an increasing concern for the future of humanity, and the planet as our life support system.
