A frequently-cited definition for Sustainable Development is one created by the World Commission on Environment and Development (1987):

“Development that meets the needs of the people today without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.”

 

 

Corporate Governance
Why We Are In Business

Natural Resource Technology’s Mission, Vision and Value Statements are supplemented by our Corporate Sustainable Development program that emphasizes the company’s desire to continuously improve our environmental and social performance within the scope of our activities.

Natural Resource Technology continually takes steps to improve our leadership role in adopting and promoting the principals of “sustainable development.” Corporate Sustainable Development is a business approach that creates long-term stakeholder value by embracing opportunities and managing risks derived from financial, environmental and social developments. We believe environmental and social performances are measurable assets that contribute to corporate and stakeholder value.
