Geoscience in Action: Advancing Sustainable Development is a freely-available resource from UNESCO and AGU that offers a practical roadmap to illustrate how geoscientists can apply their talents and skills to solving the world’s environmental, social, and economic problems.
The report presents three Sustainability Dimensions: People, Planet, and Prosperity – highlighting the positive impact geoscience has on individuals, physical systems, and social systems. With examples of projects and initiatives in which geoscientists develop solutions alongside other stakeholders, this report provides a catalogue of geoscience competencies and a series of questions and activities for motivating engagement. EuroGeoSurveys encourages geoscientists to download and utilize this valuable resource to help advance sustainable development and create a thriving world.
