Sustainability

Sustainability  focuses on meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their needs. The concept of   sustainability    is composed of three pillars: economic, environmental, and social—also known informally as profits, planet, and people.

Sustainability  describes many different approaches toward improving our way of life. A community or society that wants to pursue sustainability will try to follow the 6 principles of sustainability.

There are six principles of sustainability that can help a community ensure that its social, economic, and environmental systems are well integrated and will endure. We should remember that, although the list of principles is useful, each of them has the potential to overlap and inter-relate with some or all of the others.
