Answer 1

Sustainable development should be at the core of the developmental activity as it focuses on both current and future needs.

• It is growth which fulfills the current demands instead of losing the potential of future ages to fulfill their demands.
• It refers to the three main economic, ecological and human components of human life and should be at core of development as -

1. Essential for future generation requirement -  A judicious use of non-renewable sources must be practiced. Such resources need special care as they can not be renewed. Dependency should be minimised on non-renewable sources.
2. Proper use and resource usage reduction - It takes care of future needs and may sustain the environment which in return fosters development.
3. Overcoming acute shortage/ deficiency of resources - By investing in alternative sources of energy, the deficiency can be overcome to some extent. Overcoming of shortage will led to availability of resources useful for development.
