The concept of sustainable development is inherently intertwined with the concept of carrying capacity. Carrying capacity refers to the maximum number of individuals that a particular area can sustainably support. It is important for sustainable development to take into account the limits of the earth`s resources and the ability of ecosystems to provide goods and services. Therefore, sustainable development seeks to balance economic growth and development with the conservation and responsible use of natural resources, ensuring that development does not exceed the carrying capacity of the earth. Social justice and empowerment and inclusive growth are important considerations for sustainable development, but they are not inherently intertwined with the concept of carrying capacity. Globalization may have both positive and negative impacts on sustainable development, depending on how it is managed.
