The concept of sustainable development:
2. As a proper term, "sustainable development" is defined by the United Nations World Commission on Environment and Development as "development that not only meets the needs of contemporary people, but also does not damage the ability of future generations to meet needs", involving all aspects of population, resources, environment, society and economy. Achieving sustainable development has become the consensus of governments in promoting economic development and protecting the global environment.
Sustainable development encourages economic growth, which is the embodiment of national strength and social wealth. At the same time, sustainable development not only attaches importance to increasing quantity, but also pursues improving quality, improving efficiency, saving energy, reducing pollution, improving traditional production and consumption patterns, and implementing clean production and civilized consumption.
