Here is the definitions from several MIT students. "Sustainability
is: not f..king things up for the next generation and a cyclical
progress that moves upwards in a spiral." "Sustainability is when
things are 'green' like cob houses." "Sustainability means doing
things in a way such that they can be maintained indefinitely."
"Sustainability is the 3 E's: Economy (profitable), Equity (no
marginal social cost), and Environment (zero net impact) and also when
people stop complaining. It's not just about stopping climate change."
There's more, but Enough!
