Human Development Report 2020 The Next Frontier Human Development ad the Anthropocene

UNDP
4/5 ( ratings)
We may be entering a new geological age called the Anthropocene in which humans are a dominant force shaping the planet's future. That future is already taking frightening shape in may ways, from climate change to plunging biodiversity to the epidemic of plastics in our oceans.

The straim on the planet mirrors the strain facing many societies. Indeed, planetary and social imbalances reinforce one another. As the 2019 Human Development Report made plain, many inequalities in human development continue to increase. Climate change, among other dangerous planetary changes, will only make them worse.

The report calls for a just transformation that expands human freedoms while easing planetary pressures. For people to thrive in the Anthropocene, new development trajectories must do three things: enhance equity, foster innovation and instil a sense of stewarship of the planet. These outcomes mater in their own right, and they matter for our shared future on our planet. All countries have a stake in them.
