Global Expert Opinion
Lack of political will is identified as the most significant barrier to progress on SD. Vested interests and related factors are also important
Lack of political will is, by far, the biggest barrier to progress on Agenda 21. Vested interests in the status quo and related factors such as misdirected financial incentives and lack of private sector action are also seen as important. Experts acknowledge that complexity is an issue but not when it comes to having adequate knowledge or technologies. The corporate sector is more inclined than others to blame the poor economy.
