These three are the most important factors for sustainable reduction in poverty. The strong growth in total employment, growing faster than labor force growth, along with increases in labor productivity economy wide and especially in agriculture, supported the rapid growth in real wages in agriculture throughout the country. Agricultural workers tend to be amongst the poorest and an increase in productivity and real wages is the most sustainable way of securing reduction in extreme poverty

World Bank figures from 2016 state that more than 700 million hectares were devoted to growing corn, wheat, rice, and other staple cereals. That’s almost half of all cultivated land on the planet. 77% of global farm land is given over to grow crops to feed and graze livestock, and seventy per cent of all human freshwater consumption is taken up by these processes. With the global population expected to increase y another twenty five per cent by the end of the century, we are running out of room to feed ourselves. Is there really an opportunity for real sustainability

The world will be more sustainable when we start to use more sustainable practices towards water and electricity. When the natural sunlight is used to generate electricity, it will reduce costs and be available to everyone. The use of ethical water practices such as having a water tank in every home and the also reducing, reusing and recycling whenever possible will create a bright future for all.
