What is Sustainability?

We can break the word “sustainable” down into two parts:

sustain = “keep going”
able = “can”

So, something that is sustainable is something that can keep going.

So, sustainability is the ability of the earth, with all its resources, to keep going into the future, and keep providing a healthy home for humans and all other species of plants and animals.

People usually define sustainability as the ability to use resources now in a manner which will allow them to continue to be used in the future at the same rate.
