Planning for sustainability

Description

Planning for sustainability involves systematically integrating environmental, social, and economic considerations into decision-making processes to ensure long-term resource viability and community well-being. This strategy prioritizes setting measurable goals, assessing impacts, and implementing adaptive management practices. By identifying risks, optimizing resource use, and promoting stakeholder collaboration, planning for sustainability remedies issues such as resource depletion, environmental degradation, and social inequity, fostering resilient systems that can adapt to changing conditions and future challenges.This information has been generated by artificial intelligence.
