Plans and goals

  • NASA plans to execute a crewed mission to Mars between 2031 and 2035.[1]
  • Targets of the goals of the United Nations' 2030 Agenda are set to 2030.[2]
  • A number of climate-related goals from COP26 are for 2030:
    • The Glasgow Climate Pact aims to "[reduce] global carbon dioxide emissions by 55 per cent by 2030 relative to the 2010 level".[3] However, based on existing pledges the emissions in the year 2030 will be 14% higher than in 2010.[4]

  • The international community, including the United Nations, World Bank, and United States, have set the goal of completely eradicating extreme poverty by 2030.[8] Noting a significant decline in extreme poverty since 1990, the World Bank has noted that the end of extreme poverty is in sight and pledged to cut it down to at most 3% of the world's population by this time.[9]
  • The World Health Organization and UNICEF have set a goal for universal access to basic sanitation by 2030.[10]
  • The United Nations has made it a goal that Internet access and literacy will be universal by 2030.[11][12]
