What is Environmental Sustainability & Why is it Important?
Environmental sustainability is the key to a future in which humans and all other life can thrive. It not only involves mitigating the bad stuff by protecting our environment from the effects of climate change and pollutants but requires pushing forward the good. Truly successful environmental sustainability coaxes global ecosystems to prosper, stresses the renewable and regenerative, and pushes for a more equitable distribution of Earth’s natural resources (and its current deficiencies and negative externalities) for future generations to come.
On the noble quest for environmental sustainability, a more and more habitable, clean, and flourishing society will exist for all.
This may seem like a daunting, far-off dream to you, but step by step we can achieve this vision. It all starts with knowledge! In order to create an environmentally sustainable world, we need to understand the many facets of the system we live in.
And for this, you’re in the right place. Whether you’re trying to dive deeper into a specific aspect of sustainability or you’re simply trying to strengthen your understanding in order to apply it to environmental stewardship and more sustainable living, this page has everything you need.
