What is sustanibility?
There are more than different ways to define of the word sustainability, but they all mean the same thing. The way i'm going to put is to be able to maintain something at a certain rate or level. You can be sustainable by using solar power, wind power, geothermal power, nuclear power, hydro power, and heaps others.
Dictionaries provide more than ten meanings for sustain, the main ones being to “maintain", "support", or "endure”. However, since the 1980s sustainability has been used more in the sense of human sustainability on planet Earth and this has resulted in the most widely quoted definition of sustainability as a part of the concept sustainable development, that of the Brundtland Commission of the United Nations on March 20, 1987: “sustainable development is development that meets the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.”
