The concept of sustainable tourism has grown out of the concept of sustainable development (SD), whose most popular definition has arisen from the World Commission on Environment and Development(the Brundtland Commission).
Their 1986 report (Our Common Future) defined SD as: development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.
