The principles of sustainable development are: Conservation of the ecosystem or the environment, Conservation of Biodiversity of the planet, Sustainable development of the society, Conservation of human resources, and Population control and management. Sustainable development is a concept that facilitates development without depriving future generations of the ability to meet future needs.

The first principle of Sustainable Development is conservation of the ecosystem or the environment. “Plan or perish” is the new mantra of sustainable development . In order to have sustainable development , we have to conserve the existing ecosystem. We have to follow nature to conserve the environment. Planting trees and not cutting trees is one of the ideal solutions.

The second principle of sustainable development  is: conservation of Biodiversity of the planet. There is an abundance of flora and fauna in nature. This Biodiversity will have to be conserved for sustainable development . Society is to develop. But it should not be at the cost of losing ecological balance. New ways and means are to be found to have development that can be sustained.

There are billions of people on this planet. This human resource is invaluable for sustainable development . Conservation of human resources is thus an integral part of sustainable development . But lopsided increase in population hampers sustainable development . Therefore, population has to be controlled. An uncontrolled population will lead to malnutrition, starvation, and death.
