The UN needs a new mission: get stuff done

Oct 15, 2024 | nature.com | Peter Singer

On 22 September, delegates at the United Nations General Assembly in New York City applauded after approving the Pact for the Future. Comprising 56 promises — on issues such as peace and security, sustainable development, climate change and human rights — the pact would more aptly be named the Laundry List for the Future.

But the job is not yet done.
