What Does Sustainability Mean?
Sustainability is simply the ability to sustain something.
To sustain something, we must prolong it indefinitely, which begs the obvious question: what is it
that we want to sustain? Do we want to sustain our consumer lifestyle, our growth-based economic system,
or our control over other nations’ resources? Sustainability, therefore, is the discussion around our
ability to sustain something given the resources we have available.
What Do You Want To Sustain?
To answer this question, we need to answer other one, "How feasible is the sustainability of
the system embedded into one that it self in it's foundation is not?"
If we are to assume that that is likely unattainable than sustainability of any system turns
towards evolving the parent one into more efficient version. This principle is to be applied to
entire hierarchy.
By evolving parent one we achieve possibility for the child one, the one that lies a top of
the formentiond one, to evolve further too. This goes against the traditional approach that
we tackle the problem of one as in existing in isolation of the influences of others.
