Three Aspects of Sustainability

This week in Hurumanu 1 we are learning the three aspects of sustainability. The three aspects of sustainability are Social, Environmental, and Economical sustainability. Here is the definition of the three aspects of sustainability and as well as sustainable development.

The three aspects of sustainability

• Environmental Sustainability - ensuring the future generation's needs are are accessible when it comes to natural recourses that can be found in the environment. We can, by using renewable resources instead of non-renewable ones.

• Social Sustainability - Creating equality of access to resources regardless of who they are between social groups. Knowing the impacts of business and knowing how to manage it. As well as identifying the positive and negative effects on people and the economy.

• Economic Sustainability - Is all about using and taking recourses wisely that we need in a sensible amount that would be still accessible in the future with future generations. 

• Sustainable Development - the ability to meet the needs of future generations without compromising. In order to do that, we shouldn't take advantage of the available resources on this planet and only take the necessary.

There are three different aspects of sustainability that are both individual concepts and also overlaps.
