Economicgrowthandmodernizationhavehistoricallybeenpursuedaggressivelybynation-states,asameansnotonlyofsatisfyingbasicmaterialneeds,butalsoofprovidingtheresourcesnecessarytoimprovequalityoflifemoregenerally(forexamplewithrespecttoaccesstohealth-careandeducation).However,mostformsofeconomicgrowthmakedemandsontheenvironment,bothbyusing(sometimesfinite)naturalresourcesandbygeneratingwasteorpollution.Thisjeopardizesgrowthforfuturegenerations.Thephilosophyofsustainabledevelopmentattemptstoresolvethisdilemmabyinsistingthatdecisionstakenateverylevelthroughoutsocietyshouldhavedueregardtotheirpossibleenvironmentalconsequence.Inthisway,therightkindofeconomicgrowth—basedonbiodiversity,thecontrolofenvironmentallydamagingactivity,andreplenishmentofrenewableresourcessuchasforests—isgenerated,andthiscanprotectorevenenhancethenaturalenvironment.Present-dayeconomicdevelopmentisthereforerenderedcompatiblewithinvestmentinenvironmentalresourcesforthefuture.
