The Hon'ble Marie-Hélène Aubert, Adviser to the President of French Republic for International Negotiations on Climate and Environment, during the second Ministerial Session titled 'Ensuring Energy, Water and Food Security' at the Delhi Sustainable Development Summit 2013. The Hon'ble Marie-Helene Aubert highlighted the need to raise global awareness to follow a sustainable path and renew the green revolution initiative to help the poor communities. She emphasized that lifestyle changes need to be more sustainable. A planet of 7 billion people, a number that is growing every minute, is likely to face increased conflicts over scarce resources. So unless we begin to use our resources efficiently, we are likely to reach tipping points that will not only harm our own well-being, but also that of our future generations. The decisions we make today will define our tomorrow. It is in this context that DSDS 2013 deliberated upon 'The Global Challenge of Resource Efficient Growth and Development'.
