Author | Mir, Urfat Anjem |
Summary / Abstract (Note) | With the beginning of anthropocene, the question of sustainability and the challenges it is faced with become critical for human survival in the debate on nature and environmental protection. In this background, few challenges for sustainability are discussed in this paper, especially what may help in striving for sustainable human – nature interactions. Can there be single framework of sustainability and what are its determinants? Can sustainability be ever achieved given the present economic growth pursuit and the social consumerist behaviour of humans across societies and globe? Should the efforts of protecting environment and nature primarily target at achieving sustainability in the contemporary times or vice versa? |
