Part 7 - Who is Responsible for Sustainability?
Posted about 1 month ago.
In Part 7 (7:16), the last of the 7-Part Series on Sustainability with Naomi Stanford, she address who is actually responsible for Sustainability.
She quotes the 1987 Brundtland Commission Report:
"The Earth is one but the world is not. We all depend on one biosphere for sustaining our lives. Yet each community, each country, strives for survival and prosperity with little regard for its impact on others. Some consume the Earth's resources at a rate that would leave little for future generations. Others, many more in number, consume far too little and live with the prospect of hunger, squalor, disease, and early death."
She also references the book "Writings on an Ethical Life" by Peter Singer.
