The reason of sustainable development is due to the important challenge arises from unsustainable consumption pattern and production that have evolved in developed countries and being followed by developing countries.

This approach provides a effective classification system for sustainability properties and highlights social and political impacts which have often been omitted from consideration in the conventional design
