Sustainable development - Austria versus the Czech Republic: Difference between revisions

It is possible to observe a tendency to support sustainable development in the Czech Republic but we still have a lot to learn and improve. People should be more informed about the "history" of the products and energy sources they use and it is important to include a sustainable development overview in more fields of studies at universities. It is also necessary to consider factors like natural and social conditions or infrastructure because these create the bases for further development. As we can see on the examples of mining regions, one-sidedly focused development and economy can cause many problem for future generations if the source is exploited or if needs of society and environment are neglected (one can observe the same in nature – more complex systems are more stabil). To sum up, sustainable development requires a comprehensive attitude and the cooperation of specialists from different areas as well as the public interest because everybody can make some – at least a little - contribution.
