The SDGs are part of a global plan that aims to guarantee a more equal, fair and ecologically correct world. The role of the textile industry, in this scenario, is to promote and collaborate with sustainable and responsible development. <\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Want to understand more about the subject? So, continue reading to check out the main information about the SDGs and their relationship with the sector. <\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Good reading!<\/span><\/i><\/p>\n

Do you know what SDG means?<\/b><\/h2>\n

SDG is the abbreviation for \u201cSustainable Development Goals\u201d. They refer to the global appeal, initiated by the UN (United Nations), corresponding to the 2030 Agenda. <\/span><\/p>\n

This, in turn, is described, by the organization itself, as an action plan for people, the planet and prosperity that \u201c<\/span>seeks to strengthen universal peace with more freedom<\/span><\/i>\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n

In other words, developed in 2015, this is a project intended for all countries and interested parties to join. After all, the aim is to implement it so that it is possible to eradicate poverty and protect the planet. <\/span><\/p>\n

According to the <\/span>UN<\/span><\/a>, there is a certain determination to \u201c<\/span>take the bold and transformative measures that are urgently needed to direct the world towards a sustainable and resilient path<\/span><\/i>\u201d.<\/span><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Therefore, this agenda contains 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and 169 targets. They are ambitious, interconnected and address the main development challenges in Brazil and the world. <\/span><\/p>\n

They are almost like a revision of the Millennium Development Goals. They drink from the same source to complete those who have not been reached until then. <\/span><\/p>\n

Therefore, they focus on the search for the implementation and protection of human rights, gender equality and female empowerment. All this balanced with the environment. <\/span><\/p>\n

After all, sustainable development is based on three main factors: economic, social and environmental. Therefore, there is no <\/span>sustainability <\/span><\/a>without guaranteeing rights and eliminating social inequality.<\/span><\/p>\n

Then, the 193 UN member states that have committed to the agenda, including Brazil, will work to ensure that quality education is provided, that extreme poverty and hunger are eliminated, that societies are more peaceful and inclusive and that, with this, the planet is protected.<\/span><\/p>\n

Okay! But how does the textile industry stand out in this scenario? <\/b><\/h3>\n

\"But<\/p>\n

Now the correlation between the textile industry and the SDGs is more visible, right? That is, the objectives collaborate with the sector’s constant quest to generate productivity, efficiency and, above all, sustainability. <\/span><\/p>\n

Therefore, the Sustainable Development Goals are excellent tools to promote the complete development of the national and international textile market. At the same time as it generates environmental awareness and responsibility. <\/span><\/p>\n

On our blog we always reinforce the sector’s impacts on the environment. We can cite some examples. <\/span><\/p>\n

According to <\/span>Piau\u00ed magazine<\/span><\/a>No nosso blog sempre refor\u00e7amos os impactos do setor no meio ambiente. Podemos citar alguns exemplos. <\/span><\/p>\n

Incorrect disposal of this waste can generate contamination of the soil and other inputs, pollution, emission of contaminating gases into the atmosphere, and the impossibility of reusing these materials.<\/span><\/p>\n

All this is caused by <\/span>waste<\/span><\/a> and, consequently, due to the lack of productivity, optimization and automation in the textile sector. It’s simple! A competent, updated and efficient industry does not generate errors. This eliminates loss rates and, therefore, environmental contamination. <\/span><\/p>\n

Here, it is worth highlighting that, according to <\/span>Abit<\/span><\/a>, the sector brings together:<\/span><\/p>\n
