"Impacts of the Human Species and factors of the Agricultural Revolution & Agrarian Empires"The UN Development Goal that me and my group are trying to address is, Sustainable cities and communities. This connects to the issue of “poverty” because the UN Goal is based on our ability to use Collective Learning to accumulate all our knowledge to solve the problem. In ancient Hawaii we were an Agrarian Culture who was able to survive off the things that were produced by the land but now in modern day Hawaii we rely on the shipments of food to our grocery stores. Money is something we all are required to have and since some donʻt have they are unable to eat so they fall into the category of “poverty”. Poverty is just one example of this UN Goal being unsuccessful or not achieved in a certain area of the world. This issue of “poverty” and rising cost of living it presents itself through, homelessness. We see this today by people living in tents on the streets. Some current solutions that are being tried is, shelters, donations, formulating a ten-year statewide plan, creating/establishing affordable housing and volunteering to organizations that help the homeless. Some specific examples of solutions being tried in Hawaii is, lowering the cost of health care, creating affordable housing developments, producing tiny homes and communities, providing a safe, functional environment for those in need to get service, free clinic, long term medical respite beds, and permanent supportive housing units.
