Question
How is the issue of sustainability important for development? Explain with examples.

Answer

Sustainability is a matter of sharing development opportunity not the poverty and human deprivation. If the present is miserable and unacceptable to the majority of the world's people it must be changed before it is sustained. In other words, what must be sustained are worthwhile life opportunities, not human deprivation. Sustainable development is the real economic development accompanied by an increase in economic welfare which can be potentially shared by future generations also.Example:
  1. Ground water in India.
  2. Exhaustion of Nation Resources.
