Answer to be written
- Sustainable Development means development should take place without damaging the environment. Development in the present should not compromise with the needs of future generations.
The issue of sustainability is important for development because-
- Limited Resources - The stock of natural resources is limited . Thus, the growth of all countries of the world in future is likely to be endangered if the limited resources are completely exhausted. For example- If we continue using crude oil at present rate, then the future generations will have no oil reserves after 53 years.
- Concern for environment- The process of development has led to environmental degradation and pollution adversely affecting the quality of life in present and future generations.
Hence, Sustainable development aims at raising the quality of life of both present and future generations without threatening natural resources and environment.
