“Development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs”.[1] Sustainable development is defined as a pattern of social and structured economic transformations which optimizes the economic and societal benefits available in the present, without jeopardizing the likely potential for similar benefits in the future. A primary goal of sustainable development is to achieve a reasonable and equitably distributed level of economic well-being that can be perpetuated continually for many human generations. Sustainable development implies using renewable natural resources in a manner which does not eliminate or degrade them, or otherwise diminish their usefulness for future generations. It further implies using non-renewable or exhaustible mineral resources in a manner which does not unnecessarily preclude easy access to them by future generations. Sustainable development also requires depleting non-renewable energy resources at a slow enough rate so as to ensure the high probability of an orderly society transition to renewable energy sources.[2] Sustainability has become such a wide-ranging term that it can be applied to almost every facet of life on Earth, from a local to a global scale and over various time periods. This is not about obvious things like recycled paper or electric cars. We must expand our horizons and start looking at everything around us.
