1. The definition provided describes Sustainable development: meeting present needs without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. 2. This definition inherently involves balancing current consumption and development with the long-term availability of resources and environmental health. 3. Carrying capacity refers to the maximum population size of a species that the environment can sustain indefinitely, given the available resources and services of that ecosystem. 4. The core idea of sustainable development – living within the means of the planet so that future generations are not compromised – is directly intertwined with the ecological concept of carrying capacity. Development must occur within the limits imposed by the environment's ability to regenerate resources and absorb waste. 5. While social justice, inclusive growth, and globalization can be related to or be goals within sustainable development strategies, the fundamental ecological constraint underpinning the definition is carrying capacity.
