SDG pathways - wonder why Glasgow doesn't set clear goals / commitments by Kai Neumann

A small qualitative model that helps to understand political failure. We need to see the counter forces. The reinforcing feedback loops basically show that we simply need to tell what is wrong (narratives) and support what is right (monetary policies, subsidies).
