SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT

WHAT IS ENVIRONMENTAL SUSTAINABILITY? Environmental sustainability is what we call the efficient management and rational use of Natural Resources, without compromising the Ecological balance.

WHAT

This implies generating economic benefits today without compromising environmental resources or services in the future. We combine the discretionary use of the economic resources with the minimum use of Natural Resources (means, material, energy) and this is how we maximize benefits for everyone. DO WE UNDERSTAND BY SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT?
