I think it seems that the “me”,” SDGs”, and “the world” are unrelated but it is not true. For example, Goal 14: Converse and sustainably use the oceans, seas and marine resources for sustainable development in 17 Goals of the SDGs is also an issue in Japan.
Why does this goal prepare them? I think the cause which these issues are how people live on the earth. Marine pollution is produced by throwing away garbages such as plastic bottles, plastic shopping bags, and many other things on the beach. Then the garbages will be floating in the sea because they are brought by waves and wind. After that, the plastic bottles degrade by ultraviolet rays and so on and they become microplastics. Sea creatures such as fish, seaweed, shellfish, especially turtles can’t notice and they incorporate them into their bodies. Sometimes this thing becomes one of the reasons that sea creatures die. Not only the plastic bottles but also plastic shopping bags and plastic straws influence sea creatures too.
First of all, what can we do about these problems? I think that people who live on the earth should know the world's current state, and it is the most important thing. In Japan, started charging for plastic shopping bags in 2020 and using paper straws but if people don't know recently why these initiatives start in Japan, they don't have any meaning doesn't it? Understanding deeper about initiatives of society as a whole will lead to achieving SDGs.
How about Goal 12:Ensure sustainable consumption and production patterns? I think this Goal is also related to other Goals, for example, Goal 2:End hunger, achieve food security and improved nutrition, and promote sustainable agriculture, Goal 11:Make cities, and human settlements inclusive, safe, resilient, and sustainable life, and so on. Companies that produce things have to have responsibility against producing things from manufacturing to be used by consumers. It will lead to achieving Goal 12 and it will be able to reduce resources that didn’t need but used. I think that it can prevent to emit carbon dioxide and proceed global warming. If that happens, the environment of the earth and our lives are protected by us. Also, I hope that to lessen the food that we can eat is destructed and by their food, as much as possible people who can't eat enough food can eat them.
For these ideas, I have three things that I can do for these problems and achieving SDGs.
First of all, I should start to stop using plastic bottles and plastic shopping bags. I have known that using them is not good for the environment since to get shopping bags to start charging in 2020. However, I often forget to bring my eco-bags and water bottle when I go out and buy them. It may be difficult to become a world that has no plastic bottles and plastic shopping bags. If I forget to bring them when I need them, I buy drinks which are in containers made by Aluminium can and get shopping bags made by paper or made by possible recycling things.
Secondly, it is important to have consciousness against SDGs. Sometimes I keep switching the light on when I left the room. I want to think they become too many waste resources someday.
Finally, I should do actives which to know SDGs and 17 Goals also this is most important things. As I said earlier, knowing as much as possible people is a good thing that achieves these goals. For this, to act positively and demanding actions around people such as my family, and my friends.
I hope the earth becomes a better place for living all people and all organisms in every respect.
