Sustainable development is a goal toward which all human societies need to be moving.” Elaborate the statement in about 120 words.

 It has been said that sustainable development is an ideal which no societies today have achieved anything resembling it. Nevertheless, as with justice, equality, and freedom, it is important to uphold sustainable development as an ideal - a goal toward which all human societies need to be moving. For example, policies and actions that reduce infant mortality, increase the availability of family planning, improve the air quality, provide more abundant and pure water, preserve and protect natural ecosystems, reduce soil erosion and reduce the release of toxic chemicals to the environment, all move a society in the right direction – toward a sustainable future.

To achieve this desired goal, societies have to make certain transitions which are very much essential. There is a broad consensus on the following transition to make future societies:

·         A demographic transition: from a continually growing population toone that is stable.

·         A resource transition to an economy that is not solely obsessed with growth, rather relies more on nature’s income and protects ecosystem capital from depletion.

·         A technological transition from pollution-intensive economic production to environment friendly processes.

·         A political/sociological transition

·         A community transition
