A statistical analysis of human and environmental indicators to measure development process: A case study
Author(s): Nitin Punit and Rajender Singh
Abstract: Human development and environmental quality are two ultimate goals that every society wants to achieve at present. The development can be considered in terms of preferably economic and social parameters. On the other hand, environment relates to the resource potential and pollution level. The focus on one of these two core issues of sustainable development ultimately leads to negligence of another. It is not very easy to decide that the emphasis should be on development process or the environmental quality. Both issues are equally important in terms of human development. However, both of these parameters of sustainability appear quite different in terms of their nature but they have mutual cause and effect relationship. High level of human or infrastructural development is generally believed to be the cause of environmental degradation and depletion of natural resources and vice versa.
