In this paper it will be shown that “Entropy Generation” constitutes this Indicator. To this purpose, we will use three examples where Entropy Generation takes place and demonstrate that this generation of entropy is always contrary to Sustainable Development. A forecast of future human activities will be then presented which will demonstrate that large Entropy Generation will continue. Sustainable Development can be thus achieved only by entering an “Era of Reduced Entropy Generation”, which requires however drastic changes from Institutional policies to our own values and way of life.</p></abstract><publication_date><month>04</month><day>28</day><year>2013</year></publication_date><pages><first_page>293</first_page><last_page>299</last_page></pages><publisher_item><identifier id_type="pii">168</identifier></publisher_item><doi_data><doi>10.30955/gnj.000168</doi><timestamp>1713612006</timestamp><resource>https://journal.gnest.org/publication/168</resource></doi_data></journal_article></journal></body></doi_batch> </div>
