IntroductionSUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT, a development that
meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own
needs.
This contributed to the understanding that sustainable development encompasses a number of areas and
highlights sustainability as the idea of environmental, economic and social progress and equity, all within the
limits of the world’s natural resources.
(Brundland Comission 1987)

conclusion
Climate change has the potential to affect many aspects of human development, positively or negatively, depending on the geographic location, the economic sector, and the level of economic and social development already attained.
Because settlements and industry are often focal points for both mitigation and adaptation policy-making and action, these interactions are likely to be at the heart of many kinds of development-oriented responses to concerns about climate change.
Sustainable development is largely about people, their well-being, and equity in their relationships with each other, in a context where nature-society imbalances can threaten economic and social stability.
