SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT

Introduction

The environment consist of several interacting components, its management depends on an understanding of these components which helps avoid unhealthy influences like pollution, erosion and the wastage of resources by irreversible damages.

sustainable aimed at recycling and re-using materials, conserving energy, controlling population and pollution , and lowering the rate of consumption of materials (including forest) and energy by deliberate choice. ``

The concept of environmental management embraces 3 factors, namely conservation, preservation and sustainable development````````

Sustainable Development Ability to make

development sustainable to ensure that it meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.

Development which enables individuals and communities in underdeveloped regions of the world to raise living standards through profitable products, consistent with minimizing adverse environmental effects

Major components

Environmental Sustainability

• Reduce, Reuse, Recycle• Eco-efficiency• Cradle-to-Cradle Manufacturing–Manufacturer is responsible for the product

through entire life-cycle–Create products that are designed for

“upcycling”–Technical and biological “nutrient cycles”–No waste, not less waste

Economic Sustainability Economic sustainability is the ability of an economy to support a defined level of economic production indefinitely.

Social Sustainability

“Social sustainability is a quality of societies. It signifies the nature-society relationships, mediated by work, as well as relationships within the society”.

Sustainable revolution1. Waste disposal to waste prevention and reduction.

2. Pollution clean-up to pollution prevention.

3. Protecting species to protecting places where they

live

4. Environmental degradation to environmental

restoration.

5. Increased resource use to more efficient resource

use.

6. Population growth to population stabilization.

Problems in Implementation

Sustainable development is said to set limits on the developing world. While current first world countries polluted significantly during their development, the same countries encourage third world countries to reduce pollution, which sometimes impedes growth. Some consider that the implementation of sustainable development would mean a reversion to pre-modern lifestyles.

Factors concerning sustainable development

Some important factors concerning sustainable development are;

1. Population;

2. Growth – people must change their attitudes, habits, consumption patterns, production and selling practices to halt environment crisis.

3. Economy- economic growth means a higher rate of extraction of natural resources from the earth such as coal, minerals, etc. also there are more transforming activities such as felling trees for firewood & manufacturing of goods

4. Poverty –poor people depend almost entirely on natural resources.

5. Greater use of resources to increase production

6. Increasing use of technology
