• reversing what is unsustainable – the introduction of innovative measures consistent with a vision of and pathway to sustainability must be accompanied by identifying and redirecting or reversing policies that are unsustainable;

• – strengthen a sustainability mindset in society through education and awareness raising; 
• – change the rules and incentives to advance sustainable practices; and
