Attitude, awareness and action. A cycle we have to embrace.
Whenever we talk about sustainability, it is recurrent to place the blame in the hand of the human being. What if the hand you take is also the hand that can give much of what it takes?
We live so caught up in the frenzy of daytime, in the immensity of work that every day we have to do, that we don't always realize what's right under our noses. Every day we hear about sustainability, the urgent need for change, but do we really know what we need to do?
Sustainable development is already a well-known expression. We heard the expression on television, we find it in the most varied articles and news. But what if we now discover that this sustainable development is also part of social and economic development. Have you ever thought about associating them?
It took too long for it to be realized that bad news about environmental problems has exactly the same impact on the planet as news of social crises. However, the truth is that poverty and social inequalities, for example, are one of the many faces of the problem. Today, more than ever, it is necessary to change attitudes, change panoramas. More than information on sustainability and environmental problems, action is needed. And change can begin where you least expect it.

Today knowledge resources and solutions in the area of technology are already more than enough for a new economic system to be possible – environmentally and socially sustainable. But how? The options are more than many, but we can start with the simplest: social accountability of companies – through forms of financing that take into account social and environmental criteria – and the empowerment of people, for example, are two major steps on the path to change. Promoting knowledge is as important as swapping the plastic bag for cloth. Giving information and allowing everyone to have access to this information is essential for sustainable development to be possible.
Economy, society and sustainability are inseparable concepts. More than awareness is necessary to educate, create conditions, include. Dialogue is essential for such sustainable development to be possible. But in order for it to be sustainable it also needs to be socially and economically viable.
