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.

The fundamental thing about sustainable development is selecting a model of economic development that will not harm society or the environment even in the future. This means that you should not choose a model of economic development which will affect other stakeholders. Contrary to what some people believe sustainable development is more than ecology alone. French readers that need to find more on this topic can have a look at this article on sustainable development (developpement personnel) as it contains some interesting info.

For a proper sustainable economic model it is essential that we also have some optimum usage of energy. It is also important that we take our future generation into account when it comes to energy sources. This is the main reason why we should manage our energy resources better. It is only in this way that we can give our children and grand-children a great environment. One French text that I have lately discovered is ecology (eco pret) and should be worth taking a look. It is also essential that we talk of pollution when it comes to sustainable development. Indeed this line is sometime so blurred that people may utilize both words interchangeably. Indeed by shifting to organic farming and restricting the utilization of chemicals we are switching towards a more sustainable model of development.

There will be less aggression on the environment. Those that read French can have a look at this article on organic food (potimarron recettes) 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.
