Sustainability, means meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. At its core, it’s about striking a balance between environmental protection, economic development, and social equity—while recognizing the finite nature of Earth’s resources.
Key Aspects:
Environmental Sustainability – protecting ecosystems, conserving natural resources like water and air, and preserving biodiversity for future generations.
Economic Sustainability – Encourages long-term, resilient economic systems while fostering innovation and inclusive growth.
Social Sustainability – all individuals have access to basic needs, opportunities, quality life, while promoting equity and justice.
Sustainable Practices – adoption of policies, technologies, and behaviors that reduce environmental harm and promote social well-being.
