Recommendation

This article would have been much better if the article expanded more detailed information about each goal listed in the UN SDG instead of just listing them. The author could have talked about where we are in the process. Also, it would have been better if the author included his/her own perspective on the topic. Also I think the article contains chronological error that it doesn't talk about how sustainable development is currently going on. Sean1084 (talk) 12:09, 2 October 2023 (UTC)Reply

You seem to confuse this article with the one about the SDGs. This one is not about those UN goals. EMsmile (talk) 20:48, 2 October 2023 (UTC)Reply
