This week on the Wardrobe Crisis podcast, Vogue Australia’s Clare Press sits down with Cameron Saul to dig into the UN’s roadmap for a sustainable future
“I think we’re all realising that the consequences of our daily choices are having increasingly dangerous implications in terms of the health of the planet,” says Cameron Saul, co-founder of Bottletop and new project Together Band, which launched on Earth Day.
Together Bands raise awareness of the UN Sustainable Development Goals, the SDGs, also known as the Global Goals. You know about those, right?
If the answers no, you’re not alone. Because despite the fact that Kanye once posted about them on Twitter, many people still haven’t heard of them.
A Glocalities survey across 24 countries from 2016 (one year after they were adopted by the UN General Assembly) found that while one quarter of people had heard the name, only one in 100 knew what they were all about.
“We want solutions. What most of us don’t realise is that there is a roadmap for a healthy planet, and that’s the Global Goals,” says Saul. “It’s an extraordinary framework for action and for scaling solutions, and helping us achieve that healthy future for ourselves, our children and our children’s children.”
