सतत


Explanation:
सतत विकास is commonly used for sustainable development.

अन्तरराष्ट्रीय लोकमतों के चीन के अर्थतंत्र स्थिति पर संदेहजनक प्रश्नों को लेकर श्री वन च्या पाओ ने स्पष्ट उत्तर देते हुए कहा चीन अपने अर्थतंत्र के सतत विकास को बरकरार रख सकता है कि नहीं, कुछ लोगों को इस पर अशंका है, मैं आप को एक पक्का जवाब दे सकता हूं – हमें इस पर पूरा विश्वास है।

संयुक्त अरब अमीरात (यूएई) सख्ती सतत विकास सुनिश्चित करने के लिए पर्यावरण संबंधी नियमों को लागू करने की योजना बना रही है, संयुक्त अरब अमीरात पर्यावरण मंत्री ने कहा है.

disagree  sukirat anand: सतत is continuous. That is why in the quoted phrase the words used are सतत विकास को बरकरार. Here बरकरार conveys sustainability, not सतत

धारणीय, बनाए रखने योग्य


Explanation:
The word 'sustainable' means which can be maintained. The prevalent commonly used Hindi word for this, although a bit difficult, is धारणीय. However, in simple Hindi, it can be explained as बनाए रखने योग्य
Sustainability
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Jump to: navigation, search
For the concept in music theory, see sustain.

Blue Marble composite images generated by NASA in 2001 (left) and 2002 (right).Sustainability, in a broad sense, is the capacity to maintain a certain process or state. It is now most frequently used in connection with biological and human systems. In an ecological context, sustainability can be defined as the ability of an ecosystem to maintain ecological processes, functions, biodiversity and productivity into the future.[1]

Sustainability has become a complex term that can be applied to almost every facet of life on Earth, particularly the many different levels of biological organization, such as; wetlands, prairies and forests and is expressed in human organization concepts, such as; ecovillages, eco-municipalities, sustainable cities, and human activities and disciplines, such as; sustainable agriculture, sustainable architecture and renewable energy.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sustainability



Example sentence(s):
  • धारणीय विकास को प्रोत्साहित करने के लिए जनसंख्या का स्थिर होना अनिवार्य आवश्यकता है।
  • नैतिक मूल्यों को बरकरार रखते हुए धारणीय विकास हेतु समाधानों को खोज सकें।

neutral  Balasubramaniam L.: Can be confused with the word धारणा which means concept. धारणा in the menaing of concept is much more common in usage than धारण in the meaning of carrying. Also, धारण क्षमता is used for carrying capacity, a related concept to sustainability.

संपोषणीय


Explanation:
संपोषणीय विकास शब्‍द Sustainable Development की अवधारणा के अनुकूल है। इसके अंतर्गत विकास तो हो, परंतु वर्तमान संसाधनों को भावी प्रयोग के लिए अक्षुण्‍ण बनाए रखा जाए।

agree  sukirat anand: टिकाऊ is good; at the same time स्वपोषी is appropriate coinage for self-sustaining
11 hrs
  -> Thank you.

neutral  Lalit Sati: यह केवल NGO sector का शब्द नहीं है। सरकारी और गैर-सरकारी दोनों जगह यह विकास की एक विशिष्ट अवधारणा के लिए प्रयुक्त होता है। इसीलिए S.D. के लिए अधिक प्रयोग में आने वाले दोनों शब्दों वहनीय और टिकाऊ को मैंने पहले ही दे रखा है।Discussion entries में भी
12 hrs
  -> मैंने ऊपर Discussion entries में एक नोट जोड़कर अपनी बात स्पष्ट की है, कृपया वहां अधिक विस्तार से टिप्पणी करें, यहां जगह की कमी से पूरी बात नहीं कही जा सकती है।

neutral  Ramesh Bhatt: टिकाऊ विकास has already been posted by Lalit Sati, and this actually is the word used in Nepali too. In Nepali, they use the word "दिगो", which is the equivalent of टिकाऊ.
20 hrs
  -> ललितजी ने वहनीय पर ज्यादा जोर दिया है, जबकि मैं सुझाना चाहता हूं कि टिकाऊ अधिक उपयुक्त है, इसलिए मैंने अलग उत्तर जमा कराया।

Also see http://www.museumwales.ac.uk/en/1197/
which tells-Something which can be continued into the future, such as a sustainable resource which is something we can continue using without it running out; e.g., wind power. It again means निरंतर.
