duurzaamheid (sustainability)

Duurzaamheid, or sustainability, refers to the practice of meeting our current needs without compromising the ability of future generations to meet theirs. It involves balancing economic growth, environmental health, and social well-being. This means using resources wisely, reducing waste and pollution, and ensuring fair treatment of all people. By adopting sustainable habits, such as conserving energy, protecting natural habitats, and supporting fair labor, communities can thrive today while preserving the planet’s resources for tomorrow. Essentially, sustainability is about creating a responsible and enduring way to live and grow responsibly within our ecological limits.
