The report of “Our Common Future” agenda which raised the word “sustainable development” has given the platform of debate. The subtle difference to be read between line is, what is sustainable philosophy for development that is a green philosophy, a green line of action which decides the development whether, that is sustaining philosophy or otherwise? “Sustainable development” echoes for environmentalism and green philosophy for development – evolution- in real sense and spirit and examines green political philosophy.
