How should we address the great, and interconnected, global challenges of the 21st century. Our task, Sachs argues, is to achieve truly sustainable development, by which he means finding a global course which enables the world to benefit from the spread of prosperity while ensuring that we don't destroy the eco-systems which keep us alive and our place in nature which helps sustain our values. How do we move forward together, benefitting from our increasing technological mastery, avoiding the dangers of climate change, famines, conflicts, population explosions in some parts of the world and collapses in others, and world-wide pandemic diseases?
