What is Development?
• Generally Development is the gradual growth of a
situation that becomes more advanced and strong
than previous one.
• Development is intended to bring a positive
change for human being and its surroundings.
Development may take place by bringing about a
change in policy, projects and legislation.

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.

Chairman of the world Commission on
Environment and Development.

Sustainability is
concerned with “3 Es “.
• Equity
• Environmental Integrity
• Economic Efficiency

13.
The Principles of a
Sustainable society:
• Respect and care for the community of life
• Improve the quality of human life
• Conserve the Earth's vitality and diversity.
• Minimize the depletion of non-renewable
resources.
• Keep within the Earth's carrying capacity.
• Change attitudes and practices
• Enable communities to care for their own
environments

14.
Sustainability Principles
Reduce dependence upon
fossil fuel, underground
metals, and minerals
Reduce dependence upon
synthetic chemicals and other
unnatural substances
Reduce encroachment
upon nature
Meet human needs fairly
& efficiently.

15.
Five related aspects to the
concept of sustainability
• Economic sustainability
• Social sustainability
• Cultural sustainability
• Political sustainability
• Environmental
sustainability

16.
Lets consider some
Examples
• Solar Energy the greatest advantages of solar energy are
that it is completely free and is available in a limitless supply.
Both of these factors provide a huge benefit to consumers and
help reduce pollution. Replacing non-renewable energy with
this type of energy is both environmentally and financially
effective.
• Wind Energy is another readily available wind
energy source. Harnessing is the power of wind energy
necessitates the use of windmills ; however,
due to construction cost and finding a suitable location
this kind of energy is meant to service more than
just the individual.

Development

18.
Necessity to achieve
Sustainable Development
Prevent unnecessary pollution and help restore the
environment wherever appropriate.
Present generation should aware for needs of
presence and future generation
And also ensure the productive assets available to
future generation are not.
• Such technologies need to be developed and
implemented which help to conserve resources,

19.
Sustainability issues are to
be analysed at various
levels

20.
Global Level
Ozone
Depletion
Climate
Change
Air
Pollution

21.
Regional, National, or
Area - level
Water pollution Water Depletion
Deforestation
Fisheries
Depletion
Biodiversity
Desertification
and erosion

22.
Local Level-a plot, a farm or
a village
Soil Losses
 Loss of soil quality (chemical or physical)
 Loss of farm income

23.
What is Needed to Achieve
the sustainable development
?
• Eco Friendly
• Present generation should aware for needs of presence
and future generation.
• And also ensure the productive assets available to
future generation are not.
• Such technologies need to be developed and
implemented which help to conserve resources,
• Prevent unnecessary pollution and help restore the
environment wherever appropriate.

24.
“WHAT WE DO”
&
“WHAT SHOULD WE
DO”
Lets see through some EXAMPLES

25.
Suggestions
• We need to spread social awareness to bring
massive change in social attitude.
• Action must be taken against the backdrop of
serious inequities and their impact on the
environment.
• Environment mistakes of the past need not to be
repeated, as past patterns of degradation are not
inevitable.
