2. SCIENCE
• Science is defined as the observation,
identification, description, experimental
investigation, and theoretical explanation
of natural phenomena.
• Science explores new knowledge through
observation and experimentation.
3. TECHNOLOGY
• Technology is science or knowledge put into
practical use to solve problems or invent useful
tools.
• Technology is the application of scientific
knowledge to the practical aims of human life.
4.
5. APPLIED SCIENCE FOR A SUSTAINABLE FUTURE
• Applying existing scientific
knowledge to develop more
practical applications.
• Sustainable Future meets the
needs of the present without
compromising the ability of
future generations to meet their
own needs.
Example: Technology, inventions like
LED light, GPS Navigation, etc.....
Example: Solar energy, Crop rotation
Green space, Renewable clean energy, etc….
6. Changes That One Should Adopt :
• Reduce, Recycle and Reuse.
• Go #plastic free.
• Boycott the products that endanger life.
• Be wise in the usage of water.
• Pay attention to the labels.
• Drive less, Walk more, and Stay Healthy.
SUSTAINABLE FUTURE
7. Aim of Sustainability:
The Aim of Sustainable Development is to Balance :
• Economical deeds
• Environmental
• Social needs
• Allowing Prosperity for Now and
Future Generations.
8. How Can We Achieve Sustainability ?
Universalize access to basic services such as water,
sanitation, and sustainable energy.
Support the generation of development opportunities through
inclusive education and decent work.
Foster innovation and Resilient Infrastructure
Creating communities and cities able to produce and consume
sustainably.
9. APPLIED SUSTAINABILITY :
Applied sustainability is the application
of science and innovation, including the insights of
the social sciences, to meet human needs while
indefinitely preserving the life support systems of
the planet.
11. Pillars For Sustainability :
1. Human: Human sustainability aims to maintain and
improve the human capital in society.
2. Social sustainability: Aims to preserve social capital by
investing and creating services that constitute the framework
of our society.
3. Economic sustainability: Economic sustainability aims
to improve the standard of living
4. Environmental sustainability: Aims to improve
human welfare through the protection of natural capital.
(e.g. land, air, water, minerals, etc.)
12. Examples Of Sustainable Development :
The most common uses of permeable
pavers are parking lots, low-traffic roads,
sidewalks, and driveways and eliminating
costly drainage systems.

13. Green space includes parks, community
gardens, and cemeteries, Schoolyards,
Playgrounds, Public seating areas.
Green Spaces
2. Green Spaces :
Examples Of Sustainable Development :
14. Examples Of Sustainable Development :
Solar panels use sunlight as a source of
energy to generate direct current
electricity.
Solar Panels
3. Solar Panels :
15. Examples Of Sustainable Development :
convert non-recyclable waste into
usable forms of energy including heat,
fuels, and electricity.
Waste-to-Energy Recycling
4. Waste-to-Energy Recycling :
16. Examples Of Sustainable Development :
A wind turbine turns wind energy into
electricity using aerodynamic force.
Wind Turbines
5. Wind Turbines :
17. What If Sustainability Is Not There?
We cannot maintain the quality of life or Earth's
ecosystems unless we acknowledge and reduce
the damage we do to the planet each day.
More landfills popping up everywhere.
More animals going extinct due to deforestation
and pollution.
Example:
18. Advantages Of Sustainable Development :
It helps in ensuring a better life for present
and future generations.
Helps in achieving long-term economic
growth.
Lowers the impact on the environment by
reducing air, water, and soil pollution.
19. As You Can See
Taking all of this into Account,
Our natural environment makes human
life possible, and our cultural
environment helps define who we are.
It is therefore essential that our
population and economic growth are
environmentally sustainable.
