What is Sustainable Development?

Sustainable development is about promoting the health and wellbeing of the environment, economy and people. It means living our lives in a way that minimises our destruction of the planet to ensure it can be enjoyed by future generations here and across the world.

The National Park Authority is keen to promote sustainable development in all areas of its work and is working hard to promote the wellbeing of the environment, local people and visitors in the North York Moors.
