Home SD In-Depth Introduction to SD Introduction to Sustainable Development Definitions Welcome Definitions SD Timeline Principles of SD ... Further Exploration FARN - The Brundtland definition implies a very important shift from an idea of sustainability, as primarily ecological, to a framework that also emphasizes the economic and social context of development. (1998) Earth Council - There is an urgent need to reach broad consensus, initially at the individual and civil society levels, on a set of basic principles and values that can guide the actions of people and institutions towards sustainable development practices. Source Sustainable development means different things to different people, but the most frequently quoted definition is from the report Our Common Future (also known as the Brundtland Report): "Sustainable development is development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs." Sustainable development focuses on improving the quality of life for all of the Earth's citizens without increasing the use of natural resources beyond the capacity of the environment to supply them indefinitely. It requires an understanding that inaction has consequences and that we must find innovative ways to change institutional structures and influence individual behaviour. It is about taking action, changing policy and practice at all levels, from the individual to the international

The Well-Being of Society "The Union's aim is to promote peace, its values and the well-being of it peoples" Renaissance Europe Conference June 14th, 2004 in Brussels This meeting is an initiative of European Partners for the Environment celebrating its 10th anniversary this year and the Regional Environment Center. It takes place within the framework of Renaissance Europe, a joint initiative of the EPE-REC-Progressio Foundation, to catalyse the creation of framework conditions for a participatory, inclusive, enterprising, culturally creative and sustainable Europe that can enable the people of Europe and the world to fulfil their dreams now and for generations to come. The Draft European Constitution expected to be approved by the Inter Governmental Conference by June 2004 states that "the Union's aim is to promote peace, its values and the well-being of it peoples". (Draft Art I-3, §1). The European "reunification" and a new approach to accelerate the transition towards the Well-Being of Society are, in our views, the two pillars of the Second Renaissance of Europe. The "Well-Being of Society" think-tank meeting is designed to provide a forum where agents of change from government, civil society and companies can meet to explore how they can (i) be mutually supportive in improving the well-being of people in Europe and around the world and (ii) engineer new partnerships to accelerate the transition towards a global well-being.

MacDonald Series Editors: Michael McDonald Peter Danielson This document can be found at: http://www.ethics.ubc.ca/papers/susdev.html KEYWORDS: sustainable development, environmental ethics, forestry, resources CONTENTS Introduction Contributors Sustainability of Forests: An Attempt at a Biological Interpretation by Professor Dr. Peter Schutt Sustainable Development, Sustainable Yield Forestry, and the Meaning of Life by Jordan S. Tanz The Postmodern Forest: Images Differing by Dr. Steven Taubeneck Sustainable Development: What Do We Owe to Future Generations? by Dr. Thomas Hurka INTRODUCTION The conference was organized around the idea that sustainable development and competition are in some sense competing visions of our global future. Nowhere is this potential conflict more salient than in the forestry industry. Canada, and B.C. in par ticular, shares with Germany a concern for the fate of forests and for the industries based on forest resources. This conference sought to bring together academics from both Canadian and German universities to explore the ethical challenges associated with these competing visions. Those attending the conference had the opportunity to hear talks from a wide variety of specialties, ranging from botany to cultural studies to philosophy. Of the talks given, four were developed into papers to be included in this publication. Special thanks go to Dr. Schutt for making his speaking notes available for this purpose.
