The issue of sustainability has recently become one of the current focal areas of investigation in most scientific fields. This also means that the concept of sustainability is becoming more and more diverse. Its common outcome is the ability to meet current needs without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs. From this ability, a sustainable development can follow, the definition of which comes from1 the 1987 Brundtland report and mainly emphasises the creation of a balance between current resource use and future availability.2 All this by integrating the environmental, social and economic dimensions.3 Many concepts of sustainability and sustainable development can be found in academic literature, often independent schools have been established by representatives of different schools of thought. The conflict that unfolded in connection with the interpretation of the concepts is somewhat neutralised by the Brundtland report and the subsequent Rio process, which assigns three equally important economic, social and environmental goal systems to achieve sustainability. According to Purvis and his co-authors, this process is also supported by the fact that the two concepts are increasingly confused and often used as synonyms.4
