This category deals with environmental sustainability on a global geographic scale
Some starting points for the topic of environmental sustainability in general:
ACTIVITIES ARE SUSTAINABLE WHEN THEY:
- Use materials in continuous cycles.
- Use continuously reliable sources of energy.
- Come mainly from the non-destructive use of materials (ie. creativity, communication, coordination, appreciation, and spiritual and intellectual development.)
ACTIVITIES ARE NOT SUSTAINABLE WHEN THEY:
- Require continual inputs of non-renewable resources.
- Use renewable resources faster than their rate of renewal.
- Cause cumulative degradation of the environment.
- Require resources in quantities that undermine other people's well-being.
- Lead to the extinction of other life forms.
