Our natural environment makes human life possible, and our
cultural environment helps define who we are. It is therefore
essential that our population and economic growth are
environmentally sustainable.
Sustainable development encourages us to conserve and enhance
our resource base, by gradually changing the ways in which we
develop and use technologies. Countries must be allowed to meet
their basic needs of employment, food, energy, water and
sanitation.
