SDG 12 Responsible Consumption and Production

In order to live within planetary boundaries we must meet the targets set out by the UN in SDG 12 Responsible Consumption and Production.

The Grantham Centre works towards this Goal through Grantham Scholar projects as well as policy and engagement activities. You can search our pages to see which Scholars work on this SDG.

Our multidisciplinary project Plastics: Redefining Single-Use works towards SDG 12 Responsible Consumption and Production. A diverse range of stakeholders from business and policy work with a group of varied academics from across disciplines. Their aim is to rethink single-use plastic.

Grantham Centre work focuses on 7 of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals. You can find more information about this work here. We also post relevant news about the SDGs on our news feed.
