Sustainable living is lifestyle and philosophy

Sustainable living focuses on choices and behaviours that centre on living within our means to encourage human and environmental health.

Sustainable development was first defined by the Brundtland Report in 1987. He aimed to present environment-related issues and challenges in the context of political, social, and economic development.  

Today, the principles of sustainability are emphasised by the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), which want to preserve the planet for future generations.
