The notion of sustainable development, which is currently being proposed as the panacea to many of the most pressing environmental problems, reflects the environmental movement’s ambivalent relationship to scientific knowledge: on the one hand, science is used to legitimize the ‘green case’; on the other, it is seen as responsible for many of the current environmental problems. Local, or traditional, knowledge is often proposed as a superior form of knowledge as it lies outside science and is seen as representing a closer affinity with ‘nature’. However, local knowledge, like scientific knowledge, can be reified, given virtues it simply does not possess. In this paper we examine the two categories of scientific and local knowledge
Knowledge itself is sustainable as it can be continuously accumulated and passed down through generations. However, the way knowledge is acquired, stored, and shared may not always be sustainable due to issues such as the loss of historical records, lack of resources for education, or insufficient dissemination of knowledge to all individuals. Ensuring the sustainability of knowledge requires preservation efforts, access for all, and ongoing learning initiatives.
