Question

What is difference between development and sustainable development? Explain with suitable examples

Answer 1

Answer:

difference between development and sustainable development ?

A development is something that gets created or grows over a period of time. And, as the saying goes, what goes up must come down.

In the case of a sustainable development, the part of coming down, at least theoretically, is pushed indefinitely. After all, sustainability comes from ´sustaining´, ...staying up.

In practical terms, a sustainable development is generally able to mitigate to a greater extent the conditions, forces, etc. that threaten its continuation in time, as well as benefit from the opportunities that protect or foster that same continuation.

In the case of developments that are undertaken by human beings (an ant colony can also be considered a development), people have the opportunity of acquiring a great level of knowledge that will equip them in a better manner to respond favorably over time to the many challenges and opportunities that their development will be facing.

And so, in a nutshell, the main difference between a sustainable and a regular development is that: Those that participate in a sustainable development are more aware of the external and internal ´forces´ that can hurt/benefit them in the short, medium and long term, and they decide to consciously and purposefully chose the combination of options that will likely offer the best net long term results, even if many of those decisions are unpleasant in the short/medium term.

Sustainable development is like juggling. For it to work best, you ideally know what you´re doing, and when you´re doing it, you need to know when to throw/catch a ball higher up or lower down. And the bigger the development, that means the more balls you´re juggling and the more difficult it becomes
