Richard Horton writes about the 17 Sustainable Development Goals in his article Offline: Let’s celebrate rhetoric-based development on www.thelancet.com:
Eradicate poverty, end hunger, deliver health, ensure education for all, achieve gender equality, provide safe water, supply sustainable energy, promote economic growth, advance industrialisation, erase inequality, strengthen cities, balance production and consumption, address climate change, save the oceans, protect ecosystems, bring peace and justice to the world, and do it all in perfect amity and harmony. Thomas More called it Utopia. We are more modest (or naive) and call it sustainable development.
