(i) Development is a process which has a notion of going further up and improving the quality of life. (ii) It is linked to sustainability since it has to be maintained for future generations. (iii) Resources need to be used wisely so that they can be replenished. (iv) Overuse of resources exhaust them. For example, petroleum. (v) If development is not sustainable, it will give rise toenvironmental degradation and become a global problem. Sustainability is the capacity to endure. Sustainable development (SD) is a pattern of economic growth in which resource use aims to meet human needs while preserving the environment so that these needs can be met not only in the present, but also for generations to come. 'Sustainable Development' "is said as the ability to meet the needs of the present while contributing to the future generations’ needs." There is an additional focus on the present generations' responsibility to improve the future generations' life by restoring the previous ecosystem damage and resisting to contribute to further ecosystem damage. read less
