Sustainable Development Examples

There are different examples of sustainable development around the world, with sustainable cities, eco-industrial parks. Here are some of the examples:

1. China Rongsheng Heavy Industries, China's largest shipbuilder outside state control, plans to issue an initial public offering (IPO) in Hong Kong this month. The funds raised will be used on shipbuilding, marine engine building, engineering machinery and debt repayment. Rongsheng is a young company, delivering its first vessel in 2008, but has grown to become one of the largest shipyards in the world.
