The Prime Minister of India, at a meeting that I co-chaired a few months ago, stated that any development that is not sustainable is not development.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Sustainable development is the pathway to the future we want for all. It offers a framework to generate economic growth, achieve social justice, exercise environmental stewardship and strengthen governance.
Societies are not sustainable without institutions.
Sustainable development is a fundamental break that's going to reshuffle the entire deck. There are companies today that are going to dominate in the future simply because they understand that.
The Industrial Age is not sustainable. It's not sustainable in ecological terms, and it's not sustainable in human terms.
You cannot have development in today's world without partnering with the private sector.
Development and prosperity of the world cannot happen without the simultaneous development of India and China.
Also, it is interesting that developing countries, with China and India perhaps in the lead, where the future of the global environment will be decided are now on board with the case for sustainable development.
In my view, there is an urgent need to communicate with the public and help to explain where there is consensus, and where are there doubts about the issues of sustainable development.
So-called 'sustainable development'... is meaningless drivel.
Civilization can never be sustainable.
