UN Global Compact: Platform for corporate sustainability
“The metaverse reflects reality. If our own reality is not sustainable, it would become difficult to sustain the possibilities of the virtual world. The topic of sustainability is urgent and we believe the next generation must support Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) in order to protect the world that we live in.”

World Environment Day: From greed to green
When this year started, I wrote an article in The Korea Times titled, “Climate Outlook 2022,” in January. This article mentioned a wide range of significant global events for climate change and sustainable development. Indeed, 2022 is a historic milestone, as it marks the 50th anniversary of the United Nations Conference on the Human Environment in Stockholm, which resulted in the establishment of the U.N. Environment Programme (UNEP). This conference was widely known as the first international meeting on the environment.

Refocusing on sustainable development in 2022
In 2022, it is expected that discussion of sustainable development and other global frameworks for protecting the environment will be revitalized. The United Nations is initiating a series of celebrated conferences, as this year marks the 30th anniversary of the U.N. Conference on Environment and Development (UNCED) in 1992 in Rio de Janeiro.

The new year has come. The first global event of this year was the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) 2022, held from January 5 to 7 in Las Vegas. As the world's largest electronics show, CES showcases technologies that signal important overarching themes for the future.
