Some facts:
• 2.8 billion people (about half of world population) live on less
than $ 2 per day,

What’s sustainable development?
Brundtland
“development that meets the needs
of the present, without compromising
the ability of future generations to
meet their needs”
makes clear connection between economic, development and
environment.
The environment is the interaction between energy, transport,
infrastructure, agricultural policies and trade and development
requires a long-term considerations and the needs of future
generations

Scientific definition:
a set of conditions physical, chemical
and biological on life takes place
Economic definition:
a set of natural resources
originating - do not create by
human-
Natural recources
Renewable
their quantity is variable and may be increased if the level of sampling is less than the
capacity to regenerate
Nonrenewable
their use reduces the existing stock in any case
Main causes of pollution
Population growth
Urbanization
Increase and concentration of industrial
development
Development in transportation and in agriculture activities
Pollution is…
