The 17 Sustainable Development Goals adapted by international community have specific targets to be achieved by 2030 and the environment should be integrated into all aspects of sustainable development. To achieve these goals, there is a growing need for scientists with different specialties to work together and to promote evidence-informed policy toward the same goals. There is, however, a risk of contradiction; scientists from different disciplines have opinions that collide with one another. Using the recent discussion on marine plastic waste at S20 in Osaka, the objectives of this session is twofold: 1) to discuss and find ways to keep a good balance between promotion of industrial science and protection of natural resources, and 2) to make a balanced policy recommendation to avoid possible conflicts and public confusion in terms of achieving SDGs, using a new perspective of inclusive wealth.

SDGs, marine plastic waste, inclusive wealth, science advice

SDGsの17ゴールは、一点集中型合理主義に対する反省として包摂的な解決策を議論する場を提供し、国際コミュニティに適用されている。これらのゴールを達成するため、異なった専門の科学者が協働し、エビデンスに基づいた政策立案への提言が求められている。しかしながら、SDGsは幅広いターゲットを含有するその特徴故にゴール間の相反、つまり一つの分野での正当な議論が、科学における他分野の発展を阻害しうるリスクを含んでいる。最終的に人々の幸せを達成するためには、どのような科学が求められるのか、新国富指標というSDGsの新しい評価軸も含めた議論もその解決への大きな一助となりうる。今年大阪で開催されたS20では、海洋プラスチック問題が議論され、プラスチック廃棄物による海洋生物への影響に懸念が示され、メディアでも大きく取り上げられた。その反面、プラスチック素材の開発による物質の発展により、人々が受けてきた恩恵、また今後のプラスチックを含めた物質・材料研究が阻害されることは、人類や科学の発展におけるマイナスとなり得る。こうした事例を踏まえ、以下の目的で議論を行う。1)SDGsに含まれる生産技術的な科学の発展と天然資源保護の良いバランスとは、2)新国富という新しい視点を用い、SDGs達成に向け、人々の幸せを目指した科学的政策提言とはいかなるものか。
