Human beings have recognized that the philosopy of “Utilization of natural resources for economic reasons disregarding the need for replenishing these resources” would overexploitate all the natural resources in the world and realized that we must live by adapting to the nature in the modern 21st century. This new development model is known as “Sustainable development”. The model is being implemented by many nations in the world regardless of whether they are big or small, developed or under developed. The “Sustainable development” model includes educational and development requirements that countries need to address in order to follow the model.This paper presents our hypothesis on the economic development model that fulfills the above requirements gipro-economics and documents the results of our research on this hypothesis.

Over the last decades due to rapid development of human civilization along with revolution in technology, some burning issues about generation of environmental contaminant, management of by-products from technologies, high consumption of natural resources and conservation of natural resources have been dramatically raised. Without any contradiction, impacts in overall ecosystem as well as human civilization have negative effects. These evoked lots of scientific and industrial researches, and implemented several stricter environmental legislations on the development of sustainable ecosystem. Thus, sustainability has become an emerging topic all over the world, as evidenced by the growing body of scientific publications in the last 20 years with one order of magnitude increase since the start of the new century. The study attempts to perform a review ty is an emerging topic all over the world of the sustainable development from the food industry’s perspective. At present, the agro-food sector produces high amount of carbon dioxide, food waste, packaging waste, wastewater, etc. and it is still consuming a lot of water, land, oxygen and energy. Furthermore, taken into consideration the increasing number of the world’s population, there has been an enhancing interest experienced towards sustainable development among food manufacturers in the last decades. The article highlights the paramount areas of sustainable production, which offers new directions towards the increasing number of human beings for the future survival. The paper also gives an overview of the main perspectives contra constraints of sustainable food production, offers innovative food products from sustainable food waste and by-product, and focuses on the growing importance of sustainable food production in life cycle assessment methodology as well.

In the 21st century, many global challenges such as the instability of economic development, social inequality of the population, climate change have escalated and posed a significant threat to the achievement of sustainable development goals. As is known, until recently, in many countries of the world, the model of accelerated build-up of productive forces was dominated by the extensive use of natural resources, which causes great damage to the environment. Thus, the implemented model of increasing production essentially provided "growth without development." Such a development model is typical for many developing countries, including the countries of the post-Soviet space, including Uzbekistan. Therefore, the world community has come to the conclusion that it is necessary to search for ways of economic growth that do not increase the burden on natural resources and move to a new model of sustainable development. Uzbekistan is currently receiving close attention from the international community and the country is striving to ensure the sustainability of development not only through the use of rich natural resources, but also through the transition to innovative development based on the principles of the "green economy". Only on this basis is it possible to achieve the goals of sustainable development in Uzbekistan.

Objective - This paper presents a conceptual framework of preserving archival heritage by considering on the sustainable development model. The World Heritage Convention recognizes heritage as 'monuments, groups of buildings and sites'. The archival heritage residing in archives, libraries, museum and art gallery constitute a major part of that memory and reflects the diversity of people, languages and cultures that need to be preserved. Methodology/Technique - Preservation management is one of the basic tasks or activities of all institutions that work in the area of preserving and managing heritage, and is therefore one of the basic authority and management tasks of every archive. Findings - Differences among institutions are primarily regarding the manner of processing, use and presentation to the public. Archivists, librarians and curators differentiate heritage primarily with regard to its content and the intended purpose associated with it. Novelty - The conceptual framework will discuss on the four major components of sustainable development, element of preservation management for cultural institution, issues and challenges faced on preservation of archival heritage. Type of Paper: Conceptual Keywords: Archival Heritage; Preservation Management; Sustainable Development.

The strategy of development is such as it can be sustained by ecology or which can sustain ecology .But fact is that the trend of development all over the world is such that it cannot be sustained by ecology, ecosystem has been badly affected. The Word sustainability of development is featured firstly in the year 1970. “Sustainable development” is a modern fashionable phrase which is frequently used in Social, economic, scientific, legal, business and political circles. The crisis of the phrase avers that the term “Sustainable Development” is not capable of any precise, succinct or final meaning of Universal acceptance. It conveys different meaning to different people. An Environmentalist would interpret it asa ample heritage for future generations. A legal scholar would describe it, as balanced synthesis of environmental and developmental imperatives. An economist would view it as economic growth which can be sustained for generations. A businessman might interpret it as sustainable profits. Politicians find their vote bank in the phrase and adopt it in their election campaign. The term sustainability means achieving environmentally benign or beneficial development. Amongst the various definition following is the most appropriate ‘Sustainable Development” means a kind of development that needs of the present generation without compromising the ability of future generation to meet their own needs. However, the good principle it is and however seriousness shown by the environmentalist, United Nations, and other agencies, nothing significantly has been changed. A day before yesterday glacier in Uttarakhand is burst and Tapowanhydal project is completely destroyed by the furry of water burst from the glacier. Same furry even more disastrous we witnessed five years back at Uttarakhand near Kedarnath. It was more dangerous and more disastrous, caused the heavy loss to life and property. This is not happened only in India. But continuously has been happening all over the world. Heavy raining, heavy flooding, increased the water level in Sea, and depleting the ozone layer. These all have caused serious damage and disaster to the life on earth. Human beings are not the only creature on planet affected by the pollution of environment but all living creatures of the world are equally affected. Human rights organization shows much concern to the Human but less concern to the creatures. God will save this world. Entire humanity is in the race of physical comfort and happiness but in the process lost all thoughts of real happiness. India is a land of spirituality, all the diversity if finds anywhere in the world that is India Only. Now the time has come to find out the source of real happiness instead of being happy with physical comfort. Researcher is hoping that the message of protecting the Environment will lastly come from India. Most of the developed countries of the world have exploited natural resources and now they are advising the developing and backward Nations to restrict the use of natural resources which developing Countries are not following willingly and seriously. Yes, Humanity and world needs development but this development should not be at the cost of life of future generation. Today world is reached to such situation in which only possible outcome is the disaster which actually world is frequently experiencing in one part or other. Corona virus is one of the outcomes of environmental furry. The cause of corona virus is still not identified. Still it is a viral disease of no specification rather nonspecific disease having no medicine to cure except recently invented vaccine but how effective it would be, time ahead will tell. When scientists are doing the continuous and day night efforts for one year and invented vaccine. At least Researcher can say that the battle against said virus has won by Man. But many more battle has to face in future. Recently in Europe new form of Corona Virus is emerged. Disturbance to the ecosystem resulted into the disturbance to the ecology and that has created all sorts of problem. This is continuous process. “Sustainable Development” is one of the issue which may be taken care but equally even more disaster issues are crop of and that is the real threaten to the public health. If not controlled same can be threat to the creature and one day our own existence will come in danger.

There is a tendency in the world to preserve natural resources, because they are not limitless and exhaustible. Therefore, the strategy of sustainable development of the hotel industry, whose main activity is aimed at conserving natural resources - is a highly profitable business that can provide a significant contribution to the growth of gross domestic product at relatively low cost and short payback period. The aim of the article is to study the impact of the hotel industry on the natural and socio-cultural components of the environment. Identification of trends in the interaction of systems in accordance with modern concepts of sustainable development. It is substantiated that the concept of sustainable development of the tourism industry focuses on three aspects: economic, environmental and socio-cultural. It is established that hotels that use the strategy of sustainable development seek to reduce their impact on the environment through measures such as energy conservation, waste reduction and water conservation. In addition, hotels appeal to the environmental awareness of their guests, urging them to reuse towels and refrain from using disposable amenities. It has been proven that by implementing these measures, hotels contribute to the preservation of the environment and sustainable development, while attracting travelers who support this concept. Solutions already in use around the world include façade photovoltaic modules that convert high-rise walls into solar power plants. Energy savings can be achieved with modern full-fledged heating systems that use solar energy or other renewable energy sources. Ukraine is trying to use the rich resources of high-quality geothermal water. It is determined that the main directions of implementation of sustainable development strategies by hotel enterprises with an emphasis on eco-innovation in Ukraine are: development of modern tourist information infrastructure and hospitality industry; marketing promotion of exclusive eco-oriented hotel products on the Ukrainian and international tourist markets; improving the level of service and quality of hotel services; educational activities and scientific and educational support for the sustainable development of the industry and the activities of resorts; intensification of sustainable development of domestic hotel enterprises.

This paper aims to provide a better understanding of the current situation of natural resources consumption in the world and its relationship with the level of social development. The Ecological Footprint concept is used to indicate human beings' environmental impact, and the Human Development Index (HDI) is used as a process for the social development level. Based on the dataset of 136 countries from the World Wildlife Fund (WWF), we calculate the Gini coefficients of the total Ecological Footprint per person (EF) and its sub items, i.e., Renewable Resources Footprint per person (REF) and Energy Footprint per person (EEF). The results indicate that significant inequality exists in natural resources consumption among the 136 countries from 1996 to 2005, and inequality of the EEF is the largest. We also calculate the Lorenz asymmetry coefficients of EF, REF and EEF, which are all greater than 1, indicating that the inequality results from some countries having extremely high resources consumption. The regression analyses of EF, REF and EEF with HDI, respectively, are made to show that there is a significant U-shaped relationship between natural resources consumption per person and the social development level rather than an inverted U-shaped relationship. Therefore, the Environmental Kuznets Curve (EKC) hypothesis is not supported by this research.

الملخّصإنّ الفقر والإملاق من المشكلات الرئيسة التي يواجهها العالم اليوم، ومن أسبابها ندرة الموارد الاقتصادية الشديدة وندرة الغذاء والماء. فندرة الموارد وقلتها كانت ذات أثر مباشر في قتل الملايين من الأنفس البشريّة. وتعدّ ندرة الموارد عند الاقتصاديين الخطر الأساس الذي يهدد الوجود البشري في هذا العصر. ويعتبرها الاقتصاديّون كذلك معضلة اقتصادية ناتجة عن رغبات الإنسان غير المتناهية مقابل موارد محدودة ومتناهية. ومن الأمور التي يقترحها الاقتصاديون من اجل التغلب على هذه المشكلة أن النّاسن ينبغي عليهم أن يختاروا الموارد الضرورية والحاجية لتلبية رغباتهم. فمفهوم الندرة من منظور الاقتصاد التقليدي يعني موارد محدودة في العالم مقابل حاجات ورغبات غير محدودة. وسبب ذلك عند الاقتصاديين أن الطبيعة لا توفر موارد كافية لتلبية حاجات الناس ورغباتهم غير المتناهية. ونظرة الإسلام التي يمثلها القرآن الكريم والسنة النبوية الشريفة لمسألة الندرة نظرة مختلفة تماما عن نظرة الاقتصاد التقليدي. ويعنى هذا البحث ببيان أن الندرة ليست مشكلة الطبيعة التس سخّرها الله تعالى للإنسان،  ولكن المشكلة في أخلاقيات الناس وتصرفاتهم في الموارد الطبيعية وطريقتهم في الانتفاع بها التي أدت إلى إدخال الضرر والفساد على الموارد الموجودة.الكلمات المفتاحية: الإسلام، ندرة الموارد، الاقتصاد المعاصر، الموارد الطبيعية، الطبيعة. **************************************               AbstractAmong the main problems that the world is facing today are poverty and destitution caused by severe scarcity of economic resources and the scarcity of food and water. The lack of resources has already caused the death of millions of human beings. The scarcity of resources is counted by economists as the primary danger that threatens the human existence. Economists also consider it an economic dilemma caused by infinite human desires against limited and finite resources. In order to overcome this problem among the suggestions made by economists is that human beings should choose only necessary resources to satisfy their desires. The conventional concept of scarcity is that the resources in the world are limited vis-à-vis the unlimited human needs and desires. The reason for that according to economists is that the nature does not provide sufficient resources to meet people’s endless needs and desires. Islamic approach as represented by the Holy Qur’an and the Sunnah to the issue of scarcity is essentially different from the conventional viewpoint of economists. This paper proposes and explains that the problem is not in the nature which Allah has made subservient to man, but it is in the ethics of the people and their behaviour and way of utilization of natural resources, which ultimately damage and corrupt the available resources.Keywords: Islam, Scarcity of Resources, Modern Economy, Environmental Resources, Nature.

The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development, the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), are high on the agenda for most countries of the world. In its publication of the SDGs, the UN has provided the goals and target descriptions that, if implemented at a country level, would lead towards a sustainable future. The IAEG (InterAgency Expert Group of the SDGs) was tasked with disseminating indicators and methods to countries that can be used to gather data describing the global progress towards sustainability. However, 2030 Agenda leaves it to countries to adopt the targets with each government setting its own national targets guided by the global level of ambition but taking into account national circumstances. At present, guidance on how to go about this is scant but it is clear that the responsibility is with countries to implement and that it is actions at a country level that will determine the success of the SDGs. Reporting on SDGs by country takes on two forms: i) global reporting using prescribed indicator methods and data; ii) National Voluntary Reviews where a country reports on its own progress in more detail but is also able to present data that are more appropriate for the country. For the latter, countries need to be able to adapt the global indicators to fit national priorities and context, thus the global description of an indicator could be reduced to describe only what is relevant to the country. Countries may also, for the National Voluntary Review, use indicators that are unique to the country but nevertheless contribute to measurement of progress towards the global SDG target. Importantly, for those indicators that relate to the security of natural resources security (e.g., water) indicators, there are no prescribed numerical targets/standards or benchmarks. Rather countries will need to set their own benchmarks or standards against which performance can be evaluated. This paper presents a procedure that would enable a country to describe national targets with associated benchmarks that are appropriate for the country. The procedure builds on precedent set in other countries but in particular on a procedure developed for the setting of Resource Quality Objectives in South Africa. The procedure focusses on those SDG targets that are natural resource-security focused, for example, extent of water-related ecosystems (6.6), desertification (15.3) and so forth, because the selection of indicator methods and benchmarks is based on the location of natural resources, their use and present state and how they fit into national strategies.
