Dr Jitendra Singh said, by the year 2050, it is estimated that our global population will likely reach 9 billion people. And we have to ensure that every single one of these people will be able to enjoy a substantial quality of life without being detrimental to our natural resources & environment. He said, Sustainable Development can be said to be Development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.
