Sustainable Development and Liveability Concepts

Abstract:

At its core, the concept of sustainable development refers to reconciling “development” and “environment” (McGranahan and Satterthwaite, 2003). Development, ie meeting people's needs, requires the use of resources and involves the generation of waste. The environment has finite resources, which impose limits on the ability of ecosystems to absorb or decompose waste or make it harmless on a local, regional and global scale. Basically, urban sustainability has been defined in various ways, with different criteria and emphasis, but its goal should be to promote and enable the long-term well-being of people and the planet, through the efficient use of natural resources and waste production in a region. of the city, simultaneously improving the capacity for life, through social facilities, economic opportunities and health, so that it can better fit into the capacities of local, regional and global ecosystems. In our study we critically observe strategies to analyze the buildings quality requirements and the links between environment, investments and buildings time frame. Methods dedicated to establishing procedures to evaluate the buildings evolution through time represent key features to maintaining good relations between elements and the environment.
