I would like to share my ideas in this challenge(Supporting a Sustainable Planet). I choose this challenge because i become more realised about the importance of sustainable development in construction industry due to the lecture class and USM approaches.



A sustainable development must accounting three aspect which are environment, economy and society to archieve a equilibrium condition and they are all interrelated.


In the evironment aspect, i think that our development should cut down the using of energy (efficiency) and material that will cause pollution to environment. The structure ( building ) we build must be durable and sustainable. On construction of structure, we should protect the surrounding environment to reduce the damage to it.

In the society, everyone rights are all equal and this we called a sustainable development in aspect of society. We should treat eveyone friendly without consider about race, wealth, religous and nation. Everyone are friendly and this will no war occurs then this would lead to peaceful world in the end. A peaceful world is what we need.

In economy aspect, a sustainable economy should be consider together with the aspect of environment and society to create a equilibrium. We wan to archieve a economy not only aim on profit but to anything that can bring benefit to the society and environment too!
Lets us work together to discuss and solve the global issue.
