From The Post Carbon Institute’s What is Sustainability? article:
Unfortunately, in recent years the word sustainable has become widely used to refer merely to practices that are reputed to be more environmentally sound than others. When actually sustainability is about considering social and economic impacts in addition to environmental impacts of human activity (i.e. consumption of resources, mobility and energy choices). Often the word sustainability is used so carelessly as to lead some environmentalists to advise abandoning its use. Nevertheless, the concept is indispensable and should be the cornerstone for all long-range planning.
By Sunday at the end of Week 1, post on the following using supporting information from the required readings and videos:
Why is narrowing the definition of sustainability to the environmental dimension incorrect? What additional dimensions of sustainability should we be sure to consider?
Describe one recent example where you have seen the terms sustainable or sustainability being misused or used questionably? If nothing immediately comes to mind, keep an eye out for examples for a few days as you work, eat, shop, watch television, etc.
Use these resources to develop an understanding of sustainability and the importance and interconnections of the three dimensions of sustainability.
