口译练习：可持续发展目标怎么来的？

Summary

The speaker starts with America's  Moonshot and advises that the Moonshot in our time shall be making the world safe, fair and sustainable. He tells the origin of  Millennium Development Goals: in 2000, Kofi Anan came up with the goal of reducing the size of poverty by half by 2015. It was put on the agenda of Millennium Development Goals in 2000. It then achieved great progress such as in controlling AIDS, Malaria and TB. 

Then he introduces the origin of Sustainable Development Goals: In 2012, at the 20th anniversary of Earth Summit, governments found they didn't do a good job in protecting environment in the last 20 years since the environment damage was out of control. The Colombian government suggested building a set of goals on sustainable development on MDG since MDG had been going well. So in 2015, government gathered at the UN General Assembly hall adopted the Sustainable Development Goals.  

 Sustainable Development Goals involve the following topics:

End poverty and hunger

Send every kid to school

Universal health coverage

Combat gender and wealth inequality

Limit climate change

Stop the destruction of bio-diversity

讲者首先讲美国的登月计划很伟大，又说我们这个时代的登月计划应该是实现世界和平、平等和和持续。然后，讲到千年发展目标的由来：2000年，安南是时任联合国秘书长，他提出到2015年减少一半世界贫困人口，这个目标后来经国际会议，形成了千年发展目标。该目标后来有了实质性的进展。

2012年时，地球峰会20周年，政要对比20年前后发现，环境问题很突出，自己工作没做到位。于是，在20周年峰会上，哥伦比亚政府提出，既然千年发展目标有了那么大的进展，为什么不在它的基础上，树立可持续发展目标？于是2015年，联合国大会上，193个国家通过了2015-2030年可持续发展目标。
