Sustainability: This widely used and debated term is thrown around all over
the place and can often be misused. Something that is sustainable meets the
everyday needs of the current generation without compromising the ability of the
future generation to satisfy their needs. The earth’s ecosystems and cultures
cannot be harmed past the point of maintaining a healthy balance if humanity is
to flourish into the future. Sustainability involves being aware of how our actions,
and the actions of our community, impact the environment and society as a
whole. It involves taking positive steps toward creating a healthy future.
Sustainable development is “the use of land in such a matter that the resources
will be sustained at a given level indefinitely.”
