Answer 2

Explanation:

The principle of sustainable development has evolved on the basic assumption of co-existence of two apparently conflicting notions i.e. development and environment. But from the practical point of view, ecological, economic and social aspects of sustainability are inseparable. As William Rees has rightly pointed out that maintenance of ecological integrity has to be accorded primacy over achievement of socio-economic human needs, thus there should be a convergence between ecological and economic factors in the developmental process.

The principle of sustainable development emphasises on two basic needs, firstly, need for socio-economic development and secondly, need of limitation imposed on the environment's capability to cope with the present and future requirements.

Explaining the inter-dependence of conservation and sustainable development, the Brundtland Report (1997) said:

“Sustainable development is development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their, own needs…. Sustainable development requires meeting the basic needs of all and extending to all opportunity to satisfy their aspirations for a better life.”
