Plans and goals

* NASA plans to execute a crewed mission to Mars between 2031 and 2035.
* Targets of the goals of the United Nations' 2030 Agenda are set to 2030.
* A number of climate-related goals from COP26 are for 2030:
** The Glasgow Climate Pact aims to " educeglobal carbon dioxide emissions by 55 per cent by 2030 relative to the 2010 level". However, based on existing pledges the emissions in the year 2030 will be 14% higher than in 2010.
** More than 100 countries pledged to reverse deforestation.
** India plans to draw half of its energy requirement from renewable sources.
** China aims to peak emissions before 2030.

* The international community, including the United Nations, World Bank, and United States, have set the goal of completely eradicating extreme poverty by 2030. Noting a significant decline in extreme poverty since 1990, the World Bank has noted that the end of extreme poverty is in sight and pledged to cut it down to at most 3% of the world's population by this time.
* The World Health Organization and UNICEF have set a goal for universal access to basic sanitation by 2030.
* The United Nations has made it a goal that Internet access and literacy will be universal by 2030.
