Definition of Sustainable Development and why it is important for London
Transforming London in to a more sustainable city is essential for safeguarding us against the potential environmental and economic disruption that will affect our health and well-being. As a 'Londoner' and London resident, sustaining the best possible quality of life is something I am passionate about and is achievable without losing the unique and vibrant identity of this city.
