Goal 1: Eradicate extreme poverty and hunger

In Libya

 

Limited investment is being made in renewable energy sources, while NGO's and CSO's are pursuing eco-tourism ventures and nature conservation activities. However, there is still much to be done in terms of establishing recycling plans, promoting responsible power management and increasing education on the issue. Nevertheless, Libya is likely to be achieved within the 2015 timeframe.(Human Development Report 2007/2008).
