Question

Sustainable development is the development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. Which of the following initiatives justify the given statement?

• A. Minimise the release of greenhouse gases.
• B. Implement renewable resources.
• C. Make efficient use of water and recycle it
• D. Walk all the way to save fuel.

Answer 1

Answer: (A), (B), (C)

Make efficient use of water and recycle it

Walking all the way to save fuel does not justify sustainable development. Sustainable development does not ignore needs of the present generation to meet the demands of future generations. Both are equally given importance but with a judicious use of resources.
