What is meant by the term “sustainability”?
Types of Sustainability
There are two commonsense propositions that would probably command general support, before categorizing the different types of sustainability:
1. A sustainable system or process must be based on resources that will not be exhausted over a reasonable period (sometimes expressed as the 'long term')
2. A sustainable system or process must not generate unacceptable pollution externally or internally
Quote from: http://www.ecifm.rdg.ac.uk/definitions.htm
In my opinion this sums up what Sustainability is all about. It is about using something that will last “long-term.” The growing concern for Sustainability is adapting to the present without endangering the future generations.
