XIII - SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT Flashcards
What are the problems brought by development?
1) unfavourable climate changes and natural disasters;
2) wars and political and socio-economic instability.
According to Klarin (2018), they are the ones who have negatively impacted on the environment, endangering the survival of the Earth and the future generations.
Humans
There must be a balance among the three pillars of sustainability (Klarin, 2018).
Triple Bottom Line Concept of SD
What are the three pillars of sustainability? (ESE)
Environmental Sustainability
Social Sustainability
Economic Sustainability
It is focused on maintaining the quality of the environment which is necessary for conducting the economic activities and quality of life of people (Klarin, 2018).
Environmental sustainability
strives to ensure human rights and equality, preservation of cultural identity, respect for cultural diversity, race and religion (Klarin, 2018).
Social sustainability

Economic sustainability
- Emphasize that there is no contradiction between sustainability and development
- There is no development without sustainability or sustainability without development

What is development according to the classical theories?
development is driven by the transformation of traditional agriculture into modern industrialized production of various products and services, i.e. shifting from the traditional society to the stage of maturity and high consumption
Economic growth is a synonym for development
What is development according to the Neoliberal and modern development theories?
Development is a process whose output aims to improve the quality of life and increase the self-sufficient capacity of economies that are technically
more complex and depend on global integration
What are the Various Concepts of Development?
(shdd)
1) as structural transformation,
2) as human development
3) as development of democracy and
governance, and
4) as development as environmental
sustainability (Vázquez & Sumner as cited
by Klarin, 2018).
It is a process of targeted change,
which includes goals and resources to achieve these goals(Lele as cited by Klarin, 2018)
Development
What is the most acknowledged development indicator?
Human Development Index (HDI)

Forestry
In what way did consumerism and economic growth put
pressure on environment?
consequences of polluted and inadequate living space, poverty and illness
What are the basic causes of environmental pollution? (ano)
1) Anthropogenic causes of environmental pollution (economic growth, technical and technological development, industrial development, development of traffic and transport infrastructure, population growth and urbanization and mass tourism)
2) Natural causes of environmental pollution (soil erosion, floods, earthquakes, volcano eruptions, fires, droughts and winds)
3) Other causes of environmental pollution (wars, insufficient ecological consciousness, imbalance between development and natural ecosystems and limited scientific, material, organizational and technological opportunities
of society).
What are the consequences of the factors that have been warning about the sustainability of the planet? (vegn)
- various ecological problems,
- ecosystem disturbances,
- global climate change,
- natural catastrophes, hunger and poverty, and many other negative consequences
It refers to a development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs (WCED, 1987)

environment, because a sustainable
environment enables sustainable development. (Duran et al., 2015)
