COVID-19 And SDG 12: Promoting prudent resource use

Imagine a world with no scarcity; a world with no externalities. Imagine that resources are unlimited and our actions have no consequences on our surroundings. In the words of John Lennon, "you may say that I'm a dreamer—but I'm not the only one". We are all living under the delusion that these preposterous assumptions are true. Unfortunately, resources are limited in supply.
