Transcript: 
The United Nations is an organisation with goals of peace and sustainable development around the world. Their mission is huge, but we’re breaking it down in two minutes.

17 sustainable development goals
Let’s get to ’em ’cause the more you know

In some corners of the world today
People are living on a dollar a day
Hey, that’s not how it ought to be
So goal 1? Eliminate poverty
And goal 2, root out hunger across the globe
There’s 800 million people hungry, if you want to know
Number 3 is health and well-being
And getting people the health care that they’re needing
Learning and school are the heart of goal 4
Education opens up minds and doors
Goal number 5 is empower girls and women
So they can have the same rights that men are given
Number 6: people need water that’s clean
Poor sanitation can spread disease
Carbon-free energy is goal number 7
And how to achieve it is a question that’s pressing
But if we put our minds together
And work hard, we can find a solution, I’m guessing

[chorus]
17 sustainable development goals
To improve life all around the globe
Protecting human health and the environment
Whatever bed we make we’re going to have to lie in it (x 2)

Now imagine that you work all day for no pay
Economic growth and decent work is goal 8
Goal number 9 is to foster innovation
In infrastructure and industrialisation
Goal number 10: inequality reduction
11 is sustainable city construction
12: well, that’s sustainable consumption
So what we use matches up with production
Goal 13 calls for urgent action
To combat climate change ’cause we know it’s happening
14: protect life under seas
15: protect life on land
Goal 16 is for peace and justice
All over the planet, they’re in high demand
And the final goal, number 17
It’s the critical factor, the heart of the machine
It’s to strengthen the way we achieve these goals
Of sustainable development around the globe, yo
[chorus]
