The evolution of the global ecological footprint, which underlines climate change impact, points to a narrow path in the reconciliation of social and environmental imperatives for present and future generations and to a redoubled need for social and environmental equity. Within an approach that postulates a stronger connection between discourse and practice, both Sustainable Development Goals and COP21 Paris Agreement strengthen the strategy of universal involvement and commitment, recognizing the meagre nature of results obtained so far, and demanding alternative action for effective change regarding a new and strategic global agenda. This article reflects on this universal desideratum which requires redoubled attention to the decline - and also recovery - of environmental and social conditions.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1590\/1809-4422asocex0003v1942016","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,1,7]],"date-time":"2017-01-07T16:28:05Z","timestamp":1483806485000},"page":"197-214","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["MAKING WISHFUL THINKING A REALITY - FROM SDGS TO COP21"],"prefix":"10.1590","volume":"19","author":[{"given":"JO\u00c3O","family":"GUERRA","sequence":"first","affiliation":[]},{"name":"University of Lisbon,  Portugal","sequence":"first","affiliation":[]},{"given":"LU\u00cdSA","family":"SCHMIDT","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]},{"name":"University of Lisbon,  Portugal","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[]}],"member":"530","reference":[{"year":"2009","author":"Adger Neil","series-title":"Governing Sustainability","key":"ref1"},{"year":"2004","author":"Agyeman Julian","series-title":"Just Sustainabilities - Development in an Unequal World","key":"ref2"},{"year":"2009","author":"Beck Urlich","series-title":"World at Risk","key":"ref3"},{"year":"2011","author":"Bulkeley Harriet","series-title":"Cities and Low Carbon Transitions","key":"ref4"},{"issue":"1","key":"ref5","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","first-page":"26","DOI":"10.1108\/11766090710732497","article-title":"\"Sustainable 'what'?
