unsustainable --- This reminded me of my home country, Sri lanka. The country went through a 3 decade of civil war which did a major damage to the country's development. After the end of war in 2009, the country seems to be developing, however this progress is at the expense of future generations. The deforestation has become one of the major environmental issues in Sri Lanka, which is leading to severe droughts, floods, poor air quality etc. I think that is a good example of "unsustainable" development.
