Washington, DC (April 23, 2015) Today, partners joined at the United Nations Foundation headquarters to announce an innovative partnership that will increase, enhance and influence global communications and media reporting on issues related to the new global goals and the post 2015 development process.
This partnership was announced today with Jynwel Foundation and Thomson Reuters Foundation that will engage with a network of journalists, media experts and social media influencers around the world to make available trainings, media capacity grants, and partnerships in the lead up to two pivotal summits happening later in the year; the United Nations summit in September that will see the adoption of the new Sustainable Development Goals, and the UN Climate Change Conference in December in Paris, which is aimed at reaching a universal climate agreement.

No, I don't trust them.
It looks like they will push for energy rationing and subsequent price gouging to follow.
Then they will tell us where to set our thermostats, how big our house should be, etc etc.
Smart meters will be another element to control everything about our lives that deals with electricity.
Once they get us used to that it will be "Smart developments" where we get crammed in micro-apartments and are forced to use public transit. Wilderness areas will become off limits since humans don't need wilderness, only animals do.
We will go from land of the free to home of the complete dependency in a little over 200 years.

The Millennium Development Goals is being built on an Aid for Trade privatization model, which seeks to streamline donor countries access to development sectors in exchange for resources.[34] The competition will either give BRICS state-owned investments and enterprises the advantage of writing these rules, or perpetuate the investor-ledfinancialization of Wall St./World Bank neoliberalism—or there will evolve some other kind of compromise. How this investment process will be determined appears to be through a global economic mandate, of which the GDP revisions are key indicators.
"If we don't write the rules for trade around the world, guess what? China will," Obama said, making his case at the Oregon headquarters of the athletic apparel and footwear company Nike. "And they'll write those rules in a way that gives Chinese workers and Chinese businesses the upper hand."

While Sethi, president of development company Tien Sher, admitted he wouldn’t live in one of the units himself, it would be a different story at another stage of his life.
Vancouver's tiny home trend can be 'depressing,' according to experts.
Of course, no one has to live in a micro-condo.
"It's a choice, it's a free choice," says Saegart.
"But choices become free or not free depending on what is out there in the housing stock and what you can afford."
