Abstract

It is noted that, according to data from international organizations, in particular, the Copernicus program, 2024 was the first year when the average temperature clearly exceeded 1.5 °C compared to the pre-industrial level - the threshold established by the Paris Agreement to reduce the risks and consequences of climate change. In this regard, the issues of climate preservation are becoming exceptionally important. The article also indicates that the aspiration of humanity for progress in various components and manifestations of this concept is the most important universal value of world civilization. The final document of the Summit on Sustainable Development within the framework of the 70th session of the United Nations General Assembly approved 17 sustainable development goals, which are an action plan for people, the planet and prosperity. The article presents a model developed by the authors for implementing the economic and energy objectives of the sustainable development goals, which involves the management of economic development, innovation, education, competencies, infrastructure, security, nature protection, and climate-neutral energy in the context of decarbonization. These components reflect the most important values of the development of human civilization in the direction of harmony and progress. The progress of the implementation of the sustainable development goals is analyzed.
