Goal 6, in particular, calls for improving water quality as well as for protecting and restoring water-related ecosystems, while Goal 14 seeks to reduce marine pollution derived from land-based activities. Given the time frame of only 15 years, progress toward fulfilling the SDGs will require that we effectively translate existing knowledge into practical solutions.</p>
