The process of sustainability
Now that you have described what you think sustainability means, let me share our most used definition.
Sustainability contains 2 words: “sustain” and “ability.” Generally speaking, “sustain” means to continue something. “ability” means to be able to do something. Together, these words mean “to be able to continue to do something.”
According to the United Nations World Commission, sustainable development is:
“…development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.”
