There are three main aspects used to discuss and balance sustainable development issues. These are called the 'Three Pillars of Sustainability'.
Environmental Pillar: This means taking care of the Earth and its resources like air, water, and trees so that they last long.
Social Pillar: This means making sure people have good living conditions, jobs, and fair treatment, so everyone has a good life.
Economic Pillar: This means creating jobs and growing economies in a way that doesn't hurt the environment and is fair for everyone.
Balancing these three pillars is key to sustainable development.
