Abstract

The social and environmental crises are significant challenges faced by the world today, focusing on sustainable development. This research aims to identify social and environmental issues and the relationship between them, seeking solutions to these global challenges. The methods used include a literature review and data analysis from various relevant sources. The results indicate that social issues such as poverty, economic inequality, and discrimination are closely linked to environmental issues like climate change, pollution, and deforestation. Social problems often exacerbate environmental degradation, while environmental crises negatively impact social well-being. In conclusion, a holistic and collaborative approach involving multiple sectors and stakeholders is needed to find sustainable solutions. Technological innovation, wise public policies, increased social awareness, and changes in consumer behavior are crucial in addressing these challenges. Cultural transformation and active community participation are also required to create a balance between human needs and environmental sustainability.
