Between 1990 and 2010, 1.7 billion people gained access to electricity.
1 in 7 people lacks access to electricity mostly are from rural area
Energy dominant contributor to climate change, 60 percent green gas emission
3 billion people rely on polluting and unhealthy fuel for cooking

Cities occupy 3% percent of the earth land but accounts for 60% percent of the energy consumption
In coming decades, 95% of urban expansion will take place in developing countries.
Goal 12:Reasonable consumption and production
Achieving economic growth and sustainable development requires that we urgently reduce our ecological footprint changing the way we produce and consume goods and services.
1.3 billion tonnes of food is wasted every year and food sector accounts for 22% greenhouse gases.
If entire world switch to energy efficient light bulbs , we can save USD120 million annually
Goal 13: Climate action
Greenhouse gas emission continue to rise, almost 50% more than 1990 and global warming causing long-lasting changes to our climate system.
The annual average losses due to tsunami, cyclone and flooding amounts to hundreds of billion dollar.
For each 1% increase in temperature level, 5% decrease grain yield.
Between 1880 and 2012, average global temperature increase by 0.85 Cellcius.
Goal 14: Life Below Water
