How is sustainable development directly related to the way environment is treated, and also explain why is poverty of developing countries often related to the unwise use of the environment?
Sustaintable development is directly related to envrionment. Because Sustainable development is development of economy by usiing our resources in such a manner that they should also be preserved for our future or coming generation. Suatainable development prevents the enviorment degradation because people does not overuse natural resources, they do not harm our natural resources in extraordinary manner.
Now we discuss how poverty put unwise or negative effect on the environment in developing countries.
Poverty is represents by the poor people in the country. These poor people face poverty because of lack of resources in their hands. Poverty causes relatively more pressure on the enviorment because of lack of education among these people. Poverty contribute to environmental degradaction. Due to lack of sufficient resources and lack of knowledge pover people tend to overuse every resource available to them to survive their life. It is true that poverty and environment issues are linked to each other. Because poor people are directly depends on the environment than the rich and common people. So we can say that poverty put more pressure on the enviroment because of larger familes, unhealthy living condition, dependendent on small peace of land to meed their requirement and over exploitation of natural resources and deforestation.
