Question:

Which of the following commission emphasized on protecting the "Future Generation"?

Options:

Richardson Commission

Brundtland Commission

Tendulkar Commission

None of the above

Correct Answer:

Brundtland Commission

Explanation:

The Brundtland Commission emphasises on protecting the future generation. This is in line with the argument of the environmentalists who emphasise that we have a moral obligation to hand over the planet earth in good order to the future generation; that is, the present generation should bequeath a better environment to the future generation. At least we should leave to the next generation a stock of ‘quality of life’ assets no less than what we have inherited.
