  WHAT IS SUSTAINABILITY­: Sustainability is a complex concept. “Sustainable development is development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.” sustainability is defined as: “the physical development and institutional operating practices that meet the needs of present users without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs, particularly with regard to use and waste of natural resources. Sustainable practices support ecological, human, economic health and vitality. Sustainability presumes that resources are finite, and should be used  wisely with a view to long-term priorities and consequences of the ways in which resources are used.” In simplest terms, sustainability is about our children and our grandchildren, and the world we will leave them.
