In the past, man in his quest for better standard and quality of life has allowed all other considerations to take a back seat and this accelerated the process of environmental degradation and began to threaten the Earth’s delicate ecological balance through which life on this planet survives. It is also true that we can never allow the process of development to stall if the millions of its inhabitants are to lead a respectable standard of life. It is therefore necessary that the considerations of environment, economy and peformance (EEP) should become the real basis for sustainable development on this planet, if life on our planet is to survive for ever. In fact none of these considerations can be ignored in the process of development for future security and prosperity. This is the only alternative, we are left with today.
