Sustaining the sustainable
creating the culture of sustainability
Maria Cecilia Coutinho de Arruda
pp. 135-145
The Rio20 event of June 2012 followed the United Nations Organizations' traditional model of sustainable development: economically viable, socially fair, and environmentally correct. Lélé (1991) and Boff (2012) criticize this Triple Bottom Line, as it eases accumulation of wealth, and lack of equilibrium in the ecosystems, and does not alleviate poverty. These pillars are not adequate or sufficient for the complexity of sustainability issues.
