Abstract
This article focuses on the perspectives of ecological and economic systems to contribute to sustainable development goals. The main idea of this research is to describe the meanings of ecologic and economic systems for the realization of sustainable development ideas. One of the main assumptions relies on the interconnection of social, economic and environmental contexts that form such systems and create sustainable challenges in different areas to deal with. Therefore, this article, first, analyzes the phenomenon of urbanisation and the risks for the realization of sustainable ideas through the context of megapolises. Secondly, the article concentrates on the migration phenomenon and represents the ways that foster or block the realization of sustainable solutions. Thirdly, the article explains the risks in the area of consumption with its changing trends, attitudes and system of values within the growing attention to the sustainability discussion. Special attention is given to the category of balance in sustainability that is, if destroyed, hampers the realization of sustainable strategies.
