Sustainable Development : Problems And Prospects

Abstract

History of human civilization is the history of men’s insatiable Craving for development. But if in
the race of development, mankind loses the potential of future development then the process of
development would be self limiting. In the blind pursuit of consumerism, man has somehow forgotten
to put a limit to his needs. Nature is not a commodity, but we ourself including all creations are Part of
nature. As human beings are endowed with a creative mind, it is our primary duty to sublimate nature
with the help of science and technology so that it does not lose its capacity to sustain all life on earth.
Sustainable development is a holistic approach to development. Development to be meaningful should
be sustainable.
Key words- Sustainable, Holistic, Aspiration.
