 Sustainable development means development should
take place without damaging the environment, and
development in the present should not compromise
with the needs of the future generations.

Introduction
Sustainability of development is comparatively a new
area of knowledge in which scientists, economics,
philosophers and other socialscientists are working
together.

Sustainable development represents an opportunity to

construct a new approach, and the success of these
effors has powerful implications for issues of peace
and security.

 Sustainable development has its root in idea about
sustainable forest mangement whichwere developed in

History
Europe during the 17th and 18th centuries.

In response to a growing awareness of the depletion of

timber Resources in England, John Evelyn argued that "
sowing and planting trees had to be regarded as a national
duty of every landowner, in order to stop the destructive
over- exploitation of natural resources“.

In 1980, the International Union for the Conservation

strategy, that included one of the first references to
sustainable development as a global priority and introdced
the term. “Sustainable development”.

In 1987, the United Nations World Commission and

development released the report our common future,
commonly called the Brundtnal Report.
The report Included what is now one of the most widely
Rainbow Life recognised definitions of sustainable development.
 + The needs and importance of sustainable development
are to balance our economic environmental and social
needs, allowing well-being for now and upcoming
generations.
+ Sustainable development encourages us to conserve and
enhance our resource base by gradually changing the
methods in which we develop and use technologies.

Needs + Sustainable development increased the use of natural

fe
resources and decrease that of the non renewable ones. It

i
makes careful management of the renewable natural

& Importance L
resources.

w
+ Sustainable development brings harmony between human

b o
beings and nature. Needs of people are better fulfilled

n
and it makes human consumers realize the value of

a i
nature.

R
+ Sustainable development ensures the meaningful
Investment of capital and other means because
development is smooth and durable and the environment
is protected.
 Solar Energy : The greatest advantage of solar
energy are that it's completely free and is
available in limitless supply. Both of these
factors provide a huge benefit to consumers and
help to reduce pollution.
Wind Energy : Wind energy is another readily
available source. Hornessing the power of wind

Examples energy necessitates the use of windmill;

however due to construction cost and finding a
suitable location, this kind of energy is meant to
service more than just the individual.

Crop Rotation : Crop rotation is defined as the

successive planting of different crop on the same
land to improve soil fertility and help control
insects and diseases. Crop rotation has been
proven to maximize the potential of land, while
also preventing disease and insects In soil.

 Pillars comprises 3 elements: Environment, society and Economy.
All three are balanced so that one doesn't destroy another.

Economic Sustainability. It is the ability of an economy to support

defined level of economic production indifinetly since the Great
Recession of 2008 this is the world's biggest apparent problem
which endagers progress due to environmental sustainability
problem.
Environmental Sustainability: It is the ability of the environment
Pillars to support a defined level of environmental quality and natural
resource extraction rates indefinitely. This is the world's biggest
actual problem, though since the consequences of not solving the
problem now are delayed, the problem receives too low a priority
to be solved.

Social Sustainability : Social sustainability of a social system, such

as a country, family or organization, to function at a defined level
of social well-being and harmony indefinitely. Problems like war,
endemic, poverty, widespread injustice, and low education rated
are symptoms of a system that is Socially unsustainable.

 Sustainable development and issues related to global
environmental concerns has not been well addressed in action.
Although some planning initiatives have been taken at national
regional and local levels but when it comes to implementation,
not much progress has been made.

There seems to be lack of commitment and awareness among

Conclusion local agencies and Communities regarding to implementation of

sustainable development initiatives.

Mechanism for implementation of sustainable development

initiative need to be seriously examined including capacity
building, leadership training, coordination of efforts,
information transmitting, support and commitment from
authorities.

To transform the lifestyle of the people is something not easily

done. It has to begin with awareness and continuous campaign
from the government and active participation from stakeholders.
