Thus, we need a solution to deal with the negative consequences in order to protect the marine environment of the Persian Gulf and to implement the goals of sustainable development in this region, which is one of the most polluted and vulnerable marine areas. Because the increasing dominance of these factors has created irreparable environmental catastrophes in the Persian Gulf ecosystem that all coastal countries are responsible for preventing them. Accordingly, the 2030 Sustainable Development Goals have set out a codified set of tasks for countries, to be fulfilled by 2030. Moreover, taking into account the Millennium Development Goals, it offers solutions to solve the earth’s environmental problems in the field of poverty, clean water, clean energy and state-of-the-art technologies. Certainly, achieving the goals of sustainable development and increasing the quality of life of human beings in accordance with current and future needs is possible by achieving the tools of economic growth along with social quality and transforming to sustainable production methods and consumption patterns by establishing environmental balance.
Methodology: This article studied analytically and through library research while examining the negative consequences and obstacles to progress, also refers to the approach of positive consequences and offers solutions to overcome obstacles.
Finding: The results of this article show that necessary and unavoidable to study the consequences and to establish a procedure to achieve the proposed indigenous indicators and adapt of sustainable development goals in the Persian Gulf regions level; because achieving positive results in this matter is achievable through providing balance between economy, society and marine environment.
Conclusion: According to the analysis performed, considered as a fundamental solution for future research to eliminate marine environmental pollution, the protection of the marine environment of the Persian Gulf has been made possible by supporting and conducting the goals of sustainable development of the 2030 instrument and implementing it in the region so as to pave the way for attainment of sustainable development in marine regions by eliminating the barriers and negative consequences that impede sustainable development. Eventually, for the implementation of the 2030 instrument in the regions and countries of the Persian Gulf, governments are obliged to adopt the goals of sustainable development with regard to the appropriate environmental conditions. Hence, one of the basic objectives of the present paper is to explain and design indigenous indicators proposed for sustainable development across the regional areas of the Persian Gulf. |
