★ここまで英語の勉強と美術の勉強を兼ねて、主に英語の美術書を読んだり、NHKの英語テキストを使った勉強を進めてきた。ネタ切れ的なこともあって、次の英語で勉強することをあれこれ考えているときに、SDGsについて勉強するのもいいかなと思い、始めることにした。SDGsのロゴ使用は非商業利用であれば許諾不要であることを確認済なので、これから前文、17のゴールについて、ロゴも使用しながら勉強のメモを残していきたい。

◎繰り返しでてくるのは、"sustainable"という言葉。2度の世界大戦を経て、その反省の結果として作られた国連が、すべての国と人々の共通の目標を掲げることで、そもそもの国連が目指していたはずの戦争のない世界の実現に近づけたいという思いが感じられる。そして、皮肉にもロシアの始めた戦争によってエネルギーや食糧の問題は、切実な喫緊の問題として人々に突き付けられているということだろう。
