Having begun this series in 2001, we feel gratified at the initiative we took because sustainable development is now clearly the central objective of development policy around the world as well as the guiding principle for advancing human activities. The Summit in 2014 acquired special significance because of the current UN processes of setting Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) for Dr R K Pachauri the world by 2015, and arriving at an agreement on climate change. Director-General, TERI The culmination of these processes will map out the terrain on which human society must now traverse to ensure inclusive and equitable growth across the globe and proper protection of the earth’s vital ecosystems. Recent meetings and summits, such as the Rio+20 Summit in June 2012, have been able to attract all stakeholders, including government, business, research and academia, and civil society. There is now a need to define collectively a roadmap by which human society can attain the path of sustainable development. And time is certainly not on our side, because moving along the ‘business as usual’ pathway will lead to several negative impacts that we must avoid in the interest of ensuring the welfare of The Summit in 2014 the current generation and that of generations to come. acquired special significance because DSDS 2014 was organized in a distinctive manner, which has of the current become the hallmark of this annual Summit.

  • Administration of Barack Obama, 2013 Remarks at the White House
    Administration of Barack Obama, 2013 Remarks at the White House Science Fair April 22, 2013 Thank you, everybody. Please have a seat. Have a seat. Well, good afternoon, everybody. And welcome to the White House science fair, one of my favorite events during the course of the year. And I just had a chance to see some of the outstanding exhibits that have been put forward by some of these amazing young people. And let me just start by saying, in my official capacity as President: This stuff is really cool. [Laughter] And I want to thank these incredible young people for explaining to me what the heck is going on. [Laughter] Every one of you is enormously talented, obviously, but there's also a community of people who helped all these young people succeed: dedicated teachers who believed in them and challenged them to do even more; all of them have loving parents and mentors and family. So I want to not only give the young people a big round of applause, but all the parents and teachers and principals and everybody who was involved, give yourselves a big round of applause as well. Of course, primarily, we're here to celebrate these young scientists and visionaries who dream and create and innovate, who ask the question, why not? Why not try something better, something that's faster, something that helps more people? And that drive, that refusal to give up, that focus on the future is part of what makes America great. And all of you are participants in this long line of inventors and creators that have made this the most dynamic economy and the most dynamic country on Earth.
