From the Paper:

"Policies of sustainable development should include policies with regard to world pollution. If environmental issues are not tackled now and dealt with in a manner that will provide the future with natural resources the future looks very dim. As long as sustainable development policies are in place to carefully and strategically plan the use of the earth's resources while at the same time working to replace them as often as needed this will be one element of sustainable development that can be successful."
