Removed content about Stockholm publication

I've removed this paragraph because I don't think it helps the reader understand any better what "sustainable development" is and how it's achieved. If you want to cite from that Stockholm publication look for something specific about sustainable development. Also no need to introduce red links for a publication that doesn't have a Wikipedia article yet: "In 2022 a report called "Stockholm+50: Unlocking a Better Future" was published by a team of scientists, analyzing the changes made from the United Nations Conference on the Human Environment in 1972 and giving recommendations for the future. The key messages are; "Redefine the relationship between humans and nature, achieve lasting prosperity for all, and invest in a better future.". In addition, youth researchers issued a youth version of the report, called: "Charting a Youth Vision for a Just and Sustainable Future" also making some recommendations. The key messages are: "Health well being and communal solidarity, living in harmony with nature, international solidarity-living as one global family, a world when all humans are equal.^[1]" EMsmile (talk) 15:44, 13 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

See also discussion at talk page of sustainability. EMsmile (talk) 15:44, 13 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I think that this report give a clear understanding about what sustainable developpment is and what the opinion of scientists about it now. Red links is to explain what articles should be created to other usersif the user who writed it do not has time for it now (or to the same user later).

--Alexander Sauda/אלכסנדר סעודה (talk) 14:31, 17 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

If that is the case then we should include that particular content about sustainable development here, not some general vague statements that read more like an advocacy piece (I regard this as vague and not adding anything specific about "sustainable development" to this article the key messages are; "Redefine the relationship between humans and nature, achieve lasting prosperity for all, and invest in a better future." . Also, I don't think that the red links are useful here. Not every publication needs to have its own Wikipedia article. Too many red links are simply a distraction for the reader.

Merging "Education for sustainable development (ESD)" with Sustainable development""

In my opinion,I think "Education for sustainable development (ESD)" should have its own standalone article as it is a broad subject on its own and merging it with "Sustainable development" would not do justice to them. MajorDZod (talk) 09:47, 18 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hi User:MajorDZod , please put your comment here rather: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Talk:Education_for_sustainable_development#Merger as per WP:multi (it is not good to have the same discussion on two pages). EMsmile (talk) 10:22, 20 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Update: the merge has been carried out in the meantime. EMsmile (talk) 12:58, 2 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
