A society compromises its ability to meet the essential needs of its people in the future by over exploiting natural resources. Technological developments may solve some immediate problems but it leads to even greater ones. for example, there is a massive climate change happening around the world. therefore, the environment is in danger and immediate actions need to be taken by humans. Sustainable development provides a solution for this growing concern. it is basically defined as the development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. Sustainability focuses on the achievement of actions that would help both the environment and the people. It involves more than growth, it requires a change in the content of growth, to make it less material- and energy-intensive and more equitable in its impact. hence we can conclude that sustainable development is a goal toward which all human societies need to be moving to live a better life.
