What are the Key Elements of Sustainability?

The three most essential elements of sustainability are social, environmental, and economic sustainability. Social sustainability focuses on subjects such as social equality, human rights, and employee rights, including all stakeholders from blue to white-collared labor forces, customers, and investors. Environmental sustainability concerns corporate operations such as the use of natural resources, greenhouse gas emissions produced, and all other nature-affecting activities. Economic sustainability, on the other hand, aims to achieve company development by taking the future existence and growth into account. As many other fields, sustainability is an interdisciplinary approach; social, environmental, and economic sustainability can only be achieved when they are considered together. Therefore, all areas actively affect and are affected by each other.
