“Sustainability is an awareness of the connectivity of the world and the implications of our actions. It is finding solutions through innovative approaches, expanding future options by practicing environmental stewardship, building governance institutions that continually learn, and instilling values that promote justice.”
Charles Redman- ASU School of Sustainability
“Sustainability is the [emerging] doctrine that economic growth and development must take place, and be maintained over time, within the limits set by ecology in the broadest sense-by the interrelations of human beings and their works, the biosphere and physical and chemical laws that govern it. It follows that environmental protection and economic development are complementary rather than antagonistic processes.”
William Rukelshaus, “Toward a Sustainable World”
