1. SUSTAINABLE
DEVELOPMENT
The ability of future generations to meet their own needs is not
compromised when current demands are met through sustainable
development. The assertion is accurate and offers a goal many
people want, but it makes no recommendations or guarantees about
gauging progress toward sustainable development. Sustainability is
frequently used interchangeably with “sustainable development.”
Expansion can be thought of as development. Thus sustainable
development involves addressing the issue brought on by ongoing
economic growth without posing a threat.
2. WHAT IS SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT?
• "Sustainable development is development that meets the needs of
the present, without compromising the ability of future
generations to meet their own needs."
4. Examples of Sustainable Innovations
SOLAR GLASS:
Solar glass refers to a specially coated
glass that prevents heat from entering a
building. This can be very beneficial for
homes with large windows as it can
prevent the indoor space from heating
up to the point where it becomes
uncomfortable to sit. When compared to
regular glass (also known as float
glass) solar glass lets in a fraction of the
heat, without compromising on the level
of light that enters the room. As a result,
your home or office can look brightly lit,
without becoming hot.
ECO FRIENDLY BIOFUEL:
Sustainable
biofuel is biofuel produced in
a sustainable manner. It is not
based on petroleum or other
fossil fuels. It includes not
using plants that are used for
food stuff to produce the fuel
thus disrupting the world's food
supply.
5. Examples of Sustainable Innovations
EDIBLE CUTLERY:
Stroodle’s edible cutlery
is 100% biodegradable and
produced using less energy
than regular plastic utensils,
which makes them more
sustainable. By ditching
disposable plastic utensils, you
can help reduce greenhouse
emissions, water pollution, and
littering in our oceans.
GREEN BUILDINGS:
Green buildings help reduce
negative impacts on the natural
environment by using less
water, energy, and other
natural resources; employing
renewable energy sources and
eco-friendly materials; and
reducing emissions and other
waste.
6. SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT CASE STUDIES
Country: INDIA
Aim: Promote development of renewable energy Foster new local enterprises
Where local governments have encouraged the production of renewable
energy, their communities have realized economic benefits and secured their
energy supply, further attracting new industrial development that is not
reliant on nonrenewable energy sources. In Tamil Nadu, India, a State-run
programme to promote the development of renewable energy resulted in
the production of over 650 turbines for wind power generation. The
development of wind energy has given rise to new local enterprises,
including those specializing in the design and construction of wind energy
equipment.
7. SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT CASE STUDIES
Country: BANGLADESH
Aim: Provide energy to a remote community where there is no electricity
1. Replace kerosene lamps with more energy efficient, less fire prone, and healthier
energy sources
2.Provide sustainable trade and income for women in the community
It provides lighting and indoor air quality for rural households by replacing the
traditional kerosene lamps with modern fluorescent battery-powered lamps, which
have a reduced risk of fire and do not give off smoke and other emissions harmful
to human health. The fluorescent lamps are produced and marketed by a women in
an area where an extension of the electricity grid is not likely in the next 20 years. If
a woman makes and sells two lamps a day, she earns wages equivalent to a skilled
labourer , which benefits both her family and improves her social status. The
remote community also benefits from the lamps, which are highly efficient and
have low energy consumption.
