GENERAL PROBLEMS IN THE INTERPRETATION AND IMPLEMENTATION OF THE CONCEPT OF SUSTAINABLE DEYELOPMENT

Bogusław FIEDOR , Romuald JOŃCZY

Abstract

The global problem of unsustainable development connected with declining levels of natural resources began to be noticed at the turn of the sixties and seventies. Public opinion became concerned with ecological imblances thanks to e.g. Bernhard Grzimek’s film the Serengeti Shall Not Die and Rachel Carson’s book Silent Spring. The academic and politicalenvironmental environments were greatly affected at this time by the publication of two reports devoted to global development: a report by the UN Secretary-General - U Thant and the famous first Report of the Rome Group, the Limits of Growth in 1972 [Meadows et al., 1972]. The reactio that these reports madę, in conjuction with the mid 1970s oil crisis that
some had forecast, caused major political changes and madę governments of industrialised States realise how dependent they were on a constant supply of raw materials and energy.
