Sustainable development is transitioning from today’s society to a more environmentally friendly one. It is a mode of action that balances economic growth, environmental preservation, and social well-being. Gro Harlem Brundtland, former Prime Minister of Norway, defines it as “development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.” It is about exploiting the planet’s resources sparingly without exceeding its natural renewal capacity.
