ngm.nationalgeographic.com/2008/01/high-tech-trash/recycling-textThis website speaks about recycling, the author explains that recycling is good for several reasons: it allows to reuse our waste and now if we did not recycled we would not be able to store or destroy all our waste. Moreover in 83% of cases, the destruction costs are more important than recycling costs. Finally there remains a problem, it is the packaging. The higher hygiene standards, smaller households, the intense brand marketing, and the rise of ready-made meals have all contributed to an increase in packaging waste.

www.legrand.com/EN/sustainable-development-description_12847.htmlOn this website, at the beginning, we can find a definition of the sustainable development and this aim in the future. Then, we've got this history and after the issues. In the issues, this "article" explain us that most countries tried to find a strategy for the sustainable development. Nevertheless, they realize that it was more difficult than they believed. For them, sustainable development should help future people, that's why they divided sustainable development in different case like education, health, and so one in order to improve the quality of the life. Also, we can see the problem of the energy whit the sustainable development and others examples. To finish, in my mind, the sustainable development is a big question because everybody is concerned by this subject and it's difficult to find a real solution which could improve the quality of the environment, the life.

I have found two short article. These article speak about the risk of sustainable development (because i like negative point) www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1364032109002408www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S1364032114008284The first speak about the risk to use biocarburant, yes use that is good for global warming, but use colza, mais etc for car is not good for people because you have more and more people on this earth, and if you use food for car, you don't give this food for all people, so you have correlation between drive and eat. In addition, create food use water, so you use water too for car. The second article speak about electric energy, he just speak bout the price of electricity if you use this energy for all things. I think that these article make a critic of the consumer society, and us world think only with money. |

www.earth.columbia.edu/articles/view/1791I find this article in the web site of The Earth Institue Columbia University which deals with the solution for sustainable developement. In fact, this institue try to find answers by the way to improve difficult of the world from climate change and environmental degradation, to poverty, disease and the sustainable use of resources... The first problem is that in 2050 we will be more than 9 billion on the world and one in six people on the planet subsists onless than $1 a day. So, the institue work to across many discpline and create solution for all the problems as poverty, energy, ecosystems, climate ... I reckon this institue is a model to improve sustainable development.

www.theguardian.com/global-development-professionals-network/2015/mar/10/jeffrey-sachs-economic-policy-climate-changeThis article talk about the relation between the sustainable development and the economy. During this previous century the philosophy of economy don't take care about the environnement or the health humanity. In fact, since the industry has replaced agriculture, the economy has been limited to profit. This had the effect of increasing the gap between income and caused significant damage to the environnement such as pollution or drought.fortunately that the year 2015 provides for major changes on that side and provides for renewing the link between the economy and environment. the author tries to explain that without an ethical glance on how to manage its economy , humanity runs its self-destruction. We must stop being blinded by money and have a futuristic vision to continue and ensure proper future for our descendants. This is the goal and the philosophy of sustainable development.

The sustainable development has to be rethink for many countries. The transition is difficult for many cultures. Furthermore each culture has his own vision of the sustainable development. However we can developed a culute of substainable development in the countries.
