Sustainability can be categorized into several types based on the aspects of human life or the environment it aims to address. Some common types of sustainability include: Environmental Sustainability: Focuses on preserving and protecting natural resources, ecosystems, and biodiversity to ensure their long-term viability for future generations.  Environmental sustainability refers to the responsible management and conservation of natural resources to ensure that they are available for future generations. It involves practices that reduce harm to the environment, minimize waste, conserve biodiversity, and promote the sustainable use of resources like water, energy, and raw materials. The goal is to balance human needs with the Earth's capacity to provide resources and absorb waste, ensuring long-term ecological health and stability. Key components of environmental sustainability include: Resource Efficiency : Using resources more efficiently to reduce consumption and waste, such as...
