Shelves: science, work, history, technology, education, anthropology, business, fundamental

This is an essential book for any citizen that wants to understand present and future challenges for humanity. We live in an extremely critical moment, whatever happens in the next 20 years, whatever we as a species decide to do, will probably decide our survival.

This book should be obligatory for last year school students.

One of the strongest points of this great book is its panoramic overview and holistic approach to sustainable development. At the same time, this is also one of its main weaknesses: Trying to cover so much in just one book inevitably leads to lack of detail. The result: This book is a great but occasionally too basic introduction to sustainable development.

But I am getting ahead of myself. First, some of what I think are the main points of the book.

Sustainable development refers to efforts to set and achieve global mutually reinforcing goals in the areas of economic development, social inclusion, and environmental sustainability. The UN has emerged as the primary forum for setting such goals and coordinating action among governments, private foundations, and global businesses to make concrete progress. Real progress has been made in the eight areas prioritized as Millennium Development Goals: (1) Eradicate extreme hunger and poverty, (2) A ...more

The Age of Sustainable Development is the most comprehensive overview of humanity's greatest challenge - how mankind can exist in harmony with Earth's natural systems while solving the many severe problems facing humanity today, as defined by the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals.

Despite the immense challenge of achieving such goals in spite of a grossly unsustainable status quo, UN advisor and super-economist Jeffrey Sachs is dogmatically optimistic that humanity is capable of saving our planet and ourselves if we collectively work towards doing so.

This is the ultimate primer on Sustainable Development - Sachs explains the history of global development, the challenge of extreme poverty, planetary boundaries, food security, health issues, and so much more in neatly laid out sections with plenty of charts, photographs and real-life case studies that blend the economics and history with practical action and advice.

As someone who has been heavily involved in addressing global health and development issues, Sachs offers tremendous insight into the successes and failures of various efforts to overcome developmental challenges. He is also utterly frank in humanity's devastation on the planetary systems, notably the rapid decline in global biodiversity, the realities of anthropogenic climate change, natural resource depletion, and more. It's a hard-hitting reality check on a plethora of challenges facing humanity which dispels many myths and misunderstandings surrounding these issues.

I have but one question following the completion of The Age of Sustainable Development: Is sustainable development truly attainable under our current global economic system? Sachs seems to think so, claiming that continued (indefinite?) global economic growth can alleviate poverty and continuously improve well-being for both developed and developing nations, while simultaneously achieving environmental sustainability through efficient resource management, environmental regulation, and clean energy utilization (...while also adapting to and mitigating climate change through collective global efforts).

While Sachs doesn't directly address the systematic un-sustainability of continuous economic growth, nor that of the global economic system, he does hint at it from time to time, notably one passage that suggests the real barrier to achieving environmental sustainability will require much more than regulatory tweaks, global cooperation and clean-energy-for-all:

Page 474 - V. International Dynamics

The most important point to emphasize time and again is that the pressures of the global economy are so strong that even when treaties or regulations are put in place, vested interests often give a powerful counterforce to these measures, and control mechanisms are often at the mercy of illegal activities, bribery, corruption, and other limits of enforcement. The weight, force, and momentum of the world economy are often so powerful that the world economy runs roughshod over attempts at regulation. "

Herein lies this exceptional book's overlooked barrier to sustainable development - the current global economic system of "development" itself. If humankind is to actually coexist within our planet's natural systems without damaging them beyond repair, alternative forms of socioeconomic structuring and developmental strategies need be explored in tandem with the many lessons and solutions presented by Sachs.

In short, The Age of Sustainable Development is THE classic text for an introduction to sustainable development and how to address the greatest problems of our time. I highly recommend it to anyone and everyone. ...more

Jeffrey Sachs basically expands on the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) by explaining the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to address what he calls extreme poverty, environmental degradation, and political-economic injustice worldwide.

He provides valuable information throughout the book and some insightful solutions to address these issues, such as adaptation by communities to prepare for current and future social, economic, and environmental issues. However, as was the case with the MDG Jeffrey Sachs basically expands on the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) by explaining the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) to address what he calls extreme poverty, environmental degradation, and political-economic injustice worldwide.

He provides valuable information throughout the book and some insightful solutions to address these issues, such as adaptation by communities to prepare for current and future social, economic, and environmental issues. However, as was the case with the MDGs, much of the focus is on governments solving these problems because there is an assumption that the free market fails to internalize the social cost, fails from asymmetric information, and fails from other reasons leading to the necessity of government intervention. Meanwhile, Sachs doesn't consider the poor choices made by government (public choice) and potential opportunity costs that are often substantially worse than outcomes in the private market.

There are key issues addressed in this book and some good ideas included in the SDGs, but it is too close to central planning for my taste and unlikely to resolve the major issues of our times as we live in a dynamic world where policymakers are often, if not always, behind the curve. However, works such as this might help us get closer to better understanding big social and economic issues and find ways to address them.

Overall, the book is rather repetitive and the recommended actions are based on many assumptions that aren't necessarily supported by data or research. In addition, the public policy choices are based on the precautionary principle that can be very costly.

For example, there is much discussion about getting the world off of fossil fuels (i.e. oil, natural gas, coal, etc.) as a source of energy but there is little to no discussion about the benefits of greening the earth and substantial improvements in well-being from fossil fuels and more greenhouse gases. So, if the world is to get off of fossil fuels and the potential gains from doing so, we must consider the large losses in economic activity and human improvement that would have happened over time. This is a common mistake in much of the environmental research as they focus on the social cost of carbon that's dependent on the discount rate and ridiculous assumptions in large-scale models but dismiss the social benefit of carbon.

I learned much from this book, which is why I gave it 3 stars, but I think there is still much that we need to learn about these issues before making radical global public policy choices. Check it out for yourself. ...more

I would also highly recommend taking the supplemental online course (offered on coursera). There’s a great website and app interface, and the course is run by Jeffrey Sachs himself!!

Sachs, is an ambitious book on the process of encouraging sustainable development as a tool to combat poverty, environmental degradation and rampant health issues, to name a few. This book encompasses many fields, including governance, health, development and environmental studies in Sachs quest to promote the field of sustainable development.

For disclosures sake, Sachs is a key economic research analyst for current UN Secretary General Ban Ki-moon, and sits on a number of boards dedicated to improving quality of health, and improving economic considerations worldwide. His interest in sustainable development ties in closely to the UN's Millennial Development Goals, and he proposes "Sustainable Development Goals" as a key alternative.

Sustainable development in this book is a massive and complex web of different subjects (as can be seen from the tags I've placed on this book). It covers macro-economics in detail, touching on taxation rates, economic improvement for the third world, and the costs of energy sector development, to name a few. The book also covers health and wellness topics, such as access to drinking water, food, employment, education and healthcare, to name a few. The book also touches on governance issues, promoting transparency and public participation, but stopping short of criticizing authoritarianism as a system. Sachs basically says, "If it works, then it works."

I really enjoyed this book. It is dense, to be sure, but highly readable, and full of interesting facts and figures, and a number of well thought out arguments on why sustainable development is important. Sachs takes an optimistic approach to environmentalism, which is very refreshing. He lays out many of the challenges we face as a global community in detail (graphic or otherwise) but offers potential solutions to each one. He stays away from the "Private/Public" debate on funding and proper taxation, and instead states that it doesn't matter, as long as funding exists for key infrastructure projects. I could go on an on. Really, this is an excellent and critical read on sustainable development as a way forward into the future. It is an important book, that gathers many of the key problems facing human civilization and offers solutions to them that are cost effective and realistic. Rome wasn't built in a day, and neither will proper sustainable development targets, but with people like Sachs at the helm, the future does begin to look a whole lot brighter.

I would highly recommend this book to anyone with an interest in sustainable development, environmentalism, and governance. It gathers key macro issues together and offers policy focused insights into how they issues can be solved. It is a wonderful, timely and powerful read, and you would be remiss to give it a pass. ...more

Mixed into the economics is some history, some of the effects of climate change, and an introduction to the United Nations efforts to alleviate poverty and stimulate development. The books takes us to the point where the Sustainable development goals are being considered by the United Nations.

Some negatives: 1) The book gets the physics of the greenhouse effect wrong, just flat out wrong. It states multiple times that this is do to the Ultraviolet light from the sun being converted to infrared radiation. This is the most blatant error. 2) The book does not give the reader direction toward further reading.

What's missing/point of view. The book presents the problems we fact as essentially economic and technical and searches for economic and technical solutions to those problems. The essential question is "can one have long term global economic growth without significant additional climate change?" The answer is pretty much assumed to be yes we can, it just requires some adjustments in the economic system and creative scientific engineering advances. This is an act of faith that is never really addressed in the book. Similarly, alternative economic systems are not discussed. The success of current systems are highlighted, and there are some real successes. Based on the past, it is assumed that the past successes can be extended into the future without major changes.

Robert Nelson asks if economics is a religion and concludes it is (I will review his book sometime). I agree, and Sachs, at least in this book, is revealed as one of economics chief priests. As a chief priest he has written an apology for economics and adopted a rather positive outlook for a problematic future.

I am glad I read the book, even though I am not a "believer" that economics and technology alone can solve the problems. It is good to understand those outside of your bubble, and the book fairly presents the technocratic approach to growth and climate change, with a few technical issues. ...more

One of the most defining books of our age? It’s a brisk and light read; energy politics through the eyes of a functional government expert. Here are many otherwise unremarkable threads of discussion tied loosely around notions of sustainable development as a social-political construct and less a presentation of an economic development roadmap: i.e. development is loosely tackled in three broad sweeps, 1) through addressing issues around economic development, 2) social inclusion and 3) long-term sustainability. The ligature around the many threads of ideas however often had me confused; the discussions around policy approaches through the cycle I found to be less specific but then we are encouraged to adhere to ‘ethical thinking’ as best we can. I kept having to ask myself, what specifically in his book might we consider as our societies objectives and what therefore might serve as our societal constraints, under his arguments. Eventually we are lead to conclude that Jeffrey’s goal is simply to set a stage, whilst leaving the more rigorous questions around policy implementation to the future governments. For instance the chapter where the author makes a giant leap from initially framing a discussion around the UN Millennium Development Goals (MDG’s) to then instructively presenting his seductive case for the UN Development Goals (SDG’s) (UN Resolution 70/1), where his argument there are that much of the fervor directed at discussions around tackling a few fundamental development imperatives for lesser resource limited settings may just as well spur much needed discussion in areas of pressing global concern through adopting ‘ethical thinking’. But surprisingly by the end I was wholly convinced that there is indeed an immediate need for action and that yet the most significant piece of a policy agenda may simply require an understanding of a few fundamental issues. ...more

I approached The Age of Sustainable Development with a fair amount of skepticism but Sachs won me over with his lucid writing and comprehensive view of the daunting challenges ahead. Thankfully, Sachs is not a doomer but approaches what we must do with a realistic analysis of what it will take to avert global catastrophe. Difficult, yes; impossible, no. We have no choice but to try.

“measures like GDP per person give only a rough reflection of the overall level of wellbeing of an individual or a nation. But for sustainable development we are interested in raising human wellbeing, not just in raising income, still less in a mad race for more riches for people who are already rich. Therefore, it is important to ask how we can best measure wellbeing (or life satisfaction) beyond GDP per capita.” — 0 likes
