A deeper meaning of Sustainability and how KL will be tragically affected

I found this profound quote from the Sustainability Guru John Elkington to be shared with SDMalaysia readers.

"Properly understood, sustainability is not the same as corporate social responsibility (CSR)—nor can it be reduced to achieving an acceptable balance across economic, social and environmental bottom lines. Instead, it is about the fundamental, intergenerational task of winding down the dysfunctional economic and business models of the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, and the evolution of new ones fit for a human population headed towards nine billion people, living on a small planet already in ecological overshoot"

Just look at the new construction sites in KL and I keep wondering why we are not giving more attention to develop other towns like Seremban, Ipoh, Kuala Terengganu, Kuantan, KK and Kuching to balance out the economic spread of the country. Very soon, KL too will be overpopulated if we decide to continue the typical route of development we have replicated in the 20th century.
