The Director-General of the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO), QU Dongyu, has warned that the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) – also known as the 2030 Agenda – will not be achieved without large-scale restoration of degraded terrestrial, freshwater & marine ecosystems. He was speaking at a joint “townhall meeting” that brought together staff from FAO and the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP).
