“Meeting public expectations in relation to the sustainability of natural resource development and industrial activity are an integral part of doing business in the 21st century. In 1987 the World Commission on Environment and Development reported: “Sustainability involves improving the quality of human life while living within the carrying capacity of the planet’s supporting ecosystems.” In practice this means that development of natural resources should seek in a deliberate fashion to concurrently achieve human wellbeing and ecological integrity.”
