WHAT IS SUSTAINABILITY AND WHY DOES IT MATTER?
“Sustainable development is development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.”
-UN World Commission on Environment and Development
Pursuing sustainability allows us to create and maintain the conditions under which humans and nature can exist in productive harmony to support present and future generations. Sustainable practices support ecological, human, and economic health and vitality. In simplest terms, sustainability is about our children and our grandchildren, and the world we will leave them.
