'The clock is ticking louder than ever' for Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) the article says while stressing the urgency. While progress has been made since the SDGs were launched in 2015, we are not advancing at the speed and the scale required (see, WBCSD 2019 Report https://bit.ly/3bv3gNH). Even United Nations has called for 2020 to usher in a "Decade of Action". It will be final decade of action to deliver the Goals by 2030.

University and College campuses that are part of the Smart Campus Cloud Network-SCCN) would benefit from the WBCSD report.
