Description: Long-term sustainability refers to the ability to maintain ecological balance and resource availability over an extended period. This concept involves not only environmental conservation but also the integration of practices that ensure the social and economic well-being of present and future generations. Long-term sustainability is based on three fundamental pillars: environmental, social, and economic, known as the ‘three dimensions of sustainability.’ In the technological realm, this translates into the development and implementation of technologies that minimize environmental impact, promote efficient resource use, and foster social equity. Long-term sustainability seeks to create a development model that does not compromise the ability of future generations to meet their own needs, requiring a holistic and collaborative approach among governments, businesses, and citizens. In this sense, technological innovation plays a crucial role, as it enables the creation of solutions that can transform entire sectors, from energy to agriculture, towards more sustainable and responsible practices. The adoption of clean technologies, the circular economy, and energy efficiency are examples of how technology can contribute to long-term sustainability, ensuring a more balanced and just future for all.
