Sustainable lifestyles

This article recommends applying a ‘people lens’ to sustainability. People do not change behavior based on what they should do. People act to fulfill their needs and aspirations.The UN Environment Programme defines sustainable lifestyles as “ways of living, social behaviors and choices, that minimize environmental degradation (use of natural resources, CO2 emissions, waste and pollution) while supporting equitable socio-economic development and better quality of life for all.”
