2030

Ten years hence

2030 refers to the year, often invoked as a target date for long-term goals, projections, or deadlines: The UN's Sustainable Development Goals aim for completion by 2030.

Politicians and corporations frequently use 2030 as a planning horizon—far enough to sound ambitious, near enough to seem concrete.

We'll be carbon neutral by 2030.
