Are you one of those that think that we should move towards a more sustainable model of development? This is indeed a great vision but unfortunately there are not a lot of people that understand what it entails. Some people even use the word sustainability to describe something that is it not. In this article I will be providing an overview of sustainable development in order to help the novices learn more on this.

Sustainable development is about selecting a model of economic development that will not have any detrimental effect on the environment and society generally. Said otherwise this imply that we should not favor growth at all cost and hinders the capacity of the future generation to supply for their needs.

In a genuinely sustainable model of development there should be some effective use of energy. As I have already said above our coming generation should also be considered when it amounts to development. This means that we should preserve our natural and non-renewable energy sources as far as possible. This is the only means that we can present a good environment to our children.

When we discuss sustainability we should also not forget about pollution. This is why often we see people combining the word sustainable development and organic farming. This is the main reason why sustainable development plan often include a shift to organic farming so as to reduce the utilization of chemicals. Doing this should in truth assist in preserving the environment. Those that read French can have a look at this text on organic food (recette potimarron) so as to learn more on this.

Sustainable development has indeed become a hot topic nowadays. The world will not be able to sustain the current economic model for a long time without giving rise to social, environmental or economical crisis. Instead of waiting for these things to happen we will be better off tackling the problem at the root. But no one seems to care.
