Mångtydigheten i begreppet hållbar utveckling har däremot skapat en diskussion i samhället om vad som ska ingå i tolkningen av begreppet och år 1992 i Rio de Janeiro hölls en konferens där man arbetade fram ett program för en hållbar samhällsutveckling, Agenda 21, ett handlingsprogram för det 21:a århundradet.
