Summary
In 2011, the UN General Assembly adopted a resolution 66/204 promoting harmony with nature. It recognizes the need to strengthen scientific knowledge on the effects of human activities on ecosystems. It also invites member States to assist the efforts of developing countries by providing capacity-building and technical support. The resolution reaffirms “that fundamental changes in the way societies produce and consume are indispensable for achieving global sustainable development and that all countries should promote sustainable consumption and production patterns.”
