Thanks Vernon! Absolutely, there is no gainsaying that all 17 UN SDGs need to be addressed to achieve a more sustainable and better future for all.  As the UN SDG website already mentions, all 17 goals (related to climate action, hunger, poverty, health, education, gender equality, clean water & sanitation, energy, economic growth, industry/innovation, inequality reduction, peace/justice etc.) are interconnected.

Achieving all of these 17 goals by 2030 – as the UN has envisaged - require ongoing and concerted efforts on multiple fronts, and by several stakeholders.

This article is specifically focused on the UN SD Goal #13 (Climate Action) and the imperatives for FIs vis-à-vis this goal.
