Sustainability
can be defined as meeting various needs for present generation without
compromising future generation’s ability for meeting their basic needs. While
describing the sustainability there is need to concern about three main
criteria which are interconnected with the sphere of sustainability and
describe these relationships in terms of social, economic and environmental
aspects which are related to world level. These spheres when related to set and
get into solid form they definitely form a big chain which involves taking
better decisions and actions to be made in united ways. Many examples can be
obtained by making a firm and solid accountability regarding to economic,
environmental and social background and these decisions are mainly making plans,
management of various activities and building of different designs (Hiwaki, 2016).
It
may also include construction and law making firms. And when theses concept are
undertaken in these spheres of sustainability they can be applied for real
world to occur in systematic ways. It is important to know that natural
resources are preserved in great ways and by making many careful measures so
environment is protected. Here point to be noted that economy is not harmed in
such aspects and quality of life has been improved and maintained in specific
ways (Mohan & Morel, 2014). It has been looked
out for many developed countries. These aspects are mainly related and shoe
better improvements within such sphere. Sustainability of social and economic
aspects are based upon
Ø Smart
growth and planning for long range.
Ø Cost
savings and cost of living
Ø Their
sustainability also depend upon environmental laws and public involvement which
is mainly related to publishing and reporting
Three Spheres of Sustainability
Basically what this is saying is that nearly everything we
do or plan to do, has an effect on the sustainability of the human race.
1.
Sustainability of environment
In sustainable environment, population in an ecosystem is
maintained. It exhibit biodiversity which perform various functions in
equilibrium state and natural system seek to encourage the most optimistic
thoughts and decisions are made in such impacts of environment. It exhibit several items which are
responsible for sustainability.
2.
Economic sustainability
Sustainability
at economic level is related to create economical values and various decision
which are undertaken in most equitable and fiscally manner. As for many people
in the business growth or sustainability at economic level is the focal growth.
On large scale the sustainability is created by large projects and manage at
economic level (Bernardo De Gennaro, 2014). It also relate to
energy efficiency of subsides and breaks of tax carbon credits. Sustainability
at environmental level depends upon
Ø Management
of resources at environmental level
Ø Protection
of environment
Ø Preservation
and restoration of habits
Sustainability
also include:
§ Quality
of life
§ Importance
of education
§ Development
of community
§ Equal
opportunity and fair taxation related to business ethics trade
§ Various
right for workers and government spending
§ Following
of laws and ethics
3. Social
sustainably at global level:
Social sustainability give the concept about those decisions
or projects which promotes betterment of society as a result future generation
will come out with better perspective results. This concept also give broader
detail about the
§ human rights
§ laws for sustainability for
environment
§ involvement of public
§ participation at broader level
At global level, sustainability is
very important as it gives much detail about the various processes and laws.
Many acts are passed for social sustainability such as Clean Water Act in 1972
and Safe Drinking Water in 1974 (T. Laine Scales, 2013).
It is clear from the graphical diagram that most of the
important environmental and health laws were passed in late 1960. And it is
important to know that main concern in lives of all states in well-organized
manner depend upon quality of life. It relates to economy and environment. In
response to poor economy impacts on quality of life is poor. Therefore for
proper and equilibrium economy there is need of improvement of economy with
better plans and policies (Quigley, 2007).

Major Goals of Sustainability
It has been
predicted that either it is security of food, hunger and promoting the sustainable
agriculture end up the hunger. People actually suffer due to lack of nutrition.
Hunger is a big reason for chaos one in the seven persons suffers from hunger.
Moreover, it has been estimated there are 795 million people who are suffering
from various diseases and they lack healthy food. Most of the people suffering
from hunger belong to under develop countries and develop countries also takes
part whereas 12.9 percent of population is considered to be undernourished.
Also many Asian in the continent are found to hungriest people in two third of
the total. And so percentage of Southern
Asia has fallen in the current years. But on other side in Western sides it has
been increased and seems more in percentage in Saharan Africa which is facing
hunger. It has been estimated that one person out of four is not nourishes
because of many critical factors and lack of sustainable developments. Other
factors are also involved and poor nutrition have caused nearly half of the
children caused to death. This is very much tragically situation in there sites.
Further details showed that 3.1 million children face chronically disease which
lead to death every year. According to UNSO data it has been calculated that
one out of six children and roughly 100 million in the developing countries are
assumed to be underweight. Major factors are mainly included which are lack of
food and desirable products. Fluctuation of economy also plays important part.
Furthermore, one out of four children have stunted growth. But if women should
give more access as compared to men than major factor for hunger are expected
to be reduced dramatically as they play much important role side by side. Major
reduction of hunger is estimated to be 150 million. Leading towards the School
such as primary school 66 million of this school exhibit the children who are
suffering from malnutrition in developing countries. Africa is the most
susceptible in entire factors (White, 2012).
Focus can be
concentrated on foreign policy -or- domestic policy proposals.
Foreign Policy Sustainability
1. As
we know that countries have to interact with each other, Countries have
different type of relations, like allies, trade partners, strategic stake
holders, etc. and one can say that foreign policy depends on domestic policies,
influenced by geopolitical designs and World’s trade. Foreign policy is led by
diplomacy. Countries play their roles as a counterpart when it comes to their
personal interests, diplomacy plays its role there either ways for war or for
peace.
2. Interaction
between countries and Nations lead by foreign policy. Foreign policy include
decisions that can affect the other countries. Public shows their real interest
in foreign policies of their countries as it tells us it effects general
public. It’s a pathway that decides the fate of the Head of state, because
his/her foreign policy shows that how much he/ she is loyal to his/her
3. Country’s domestic and foreign agendas in this
global village. It involves an elaborate series of steps and levels where
domestic politics plays an important role. The head of government may have many
motivating factors can be identified to explain the rationale behind decisions
taken. Some factors of influence include the leader’s own personality and skills,
domestic politics. Other factors include
degree of rationality and international and domestic interest groups.
The leader have to play a game of two different levels domestic level and
international level And the impact of International organizations is quite
different than domestic ones.
In the whole world nowadays either it
is political systems or implementation of various policies governed by the
government degree of acceptance still required by decision taken by political
system. Because main reason are seen in foreign democratic system which are
more likely to be unsuccessful because they lack many consensus. Regardless,
such factors political systems interfere with other decision of foreign
policies. The head of the state has to come up
with international and domestic imperatives and the head of the state has to maintain
a nice face locally and internationally.
The U.S.
strategy in World War II was pretty successful according to thoughts of many
people but the head of government instead of solely basing it on military
advice at that time considered the issue which is mainly domestic politics thus
many other factors were also included in such aspects. Foreign policies and
interfere with other factors were cooperated and main issues were emerged
because of many reasons. Actually the United States strategy in World War II
was greatly influenced by the need of president in order to maintain popular
support at home and other reasons were also exhibited side by side in special
ways and critical factors were involved (Quigley, 2007).
STUDENTS ARE
ENCOURAGED TO SERIOUSLY REVIEW/CONSIDER ALL EDUCATIONAL OPPORTUNITIES
ASSOCIATED WITH THE SAGE SCHOLAR PROGRAM
The article is
about the sustainability. Some courses are offered on the website related to
the sustainability more than twenty subjects in the specific area such as sustainable
economy, sustainable society, sustainable environment as well as the global
citizenship. The courses which are designed for the students by SAGE as well as
made them available for the students are mentioned in here which are finance, Environmental
science, microbiology, mortgage banking, philosophy, history, humanities,
logistics, geology environmental science, mathematics, sociology as well as the
speech communication.
The website is for those who wants
to be a SAGE scholar. The people can become the volunteer. For this purpose, some
requirement are required. Students must have to complete all of the learning
services for the hours of volunteering completion as well as should get the
verification by SAGE scholar (Bernardo De Gennaro, 2014).
Several courses of SAGE as well as
the instructors of the related subject have the assignments that developing the
campus by allowing all students to take a part in building of campus and in the
greening a more sustainable community. The college of North lake has many
classrooms at outdoor which provide help for learning as well as building the
sustainable environment. The living learning garden, community garden as well
as the butterfly garden are also included by the central campus of the North
lake college. Furthermore, the outdoor waking creek and trail are also included
by the South Campus of North Lake College.
For making or taking part in the formation
of sustainable environment, the jobs for sustainability are also offered. The
jobs for this purpose are named as the green jobs for almost every career such
as business, engineering, healthcare, information technology, recycling,
science transportation, retail sales, the business education, hospitality, water
resources as well as the economics and international relations (Mohan & Morel, 2014).
