Better Phrase than Sustainable Development is Sustainable Life.

The problematic word was "development"; it implies domination, human expansion and it is economy-focused.

Life include humans and all other lifeforms within GAIA. Sustainable should be kept to do the rest of the job, remind us that life is not sustainable when resources are ab-used and one species dominates all LIFE-support means.

Life is a word people can understand and identify with!!!!
