Correct Answer: Balancing economic growth and environmental protection

 


Solution : The correct answer is (c) balancing economic growth and environmental protection.

Sustainable development is a holistic approach that seeks to meet the needs of the present generation without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. It recognizes that economic development, social progress, and environmental protection are interdependent and should be pursued in a balanced and integrated manner.

Sustainable development promotes the efficient use of resources, the adoption of clean technologies, and the preservation of ecosystems to ensure long-term environmental sustainability. It recognizes the importance of addressing climate change, biodiversity loss, pollution, and other environmental challenges as integral parts of development strategies.
