Abstract
Critical discourse analysis (CDA) is employed to analyse ecological discourses in the Sustainable Development Goals.

The central argument of CPE is that environmental problems are framed in different ways through ecological discourse and that influences and contains the ways in which the problem can be discussed. After reviewing of goal 13, 14 and 15 we find that the dominating discourse influencing the formulations are defined as an orthodox environmental discourse by CPE. We also find that the SDGs has a degree of interdiscursivity which implies that the environmental discourses used by the United Nations are increasingly critical ones. (Less)
