My Pursuit Of Sustainability

Sustainability has become a relevant word in the vocabulary of many organizations, governments and individuals. More than just a word, sustainability relates to the ability of institutions to continue executing their functions without forgetting the effects on the environment and taking into consideration the fair treatment of their employees and the human rights of society. Although sustainability is a widely used term by many individuals, the understanding of this term is not as clear as its popularity. When discussing the ideas of sustainability, most people automatically associate the term with the human impact on the environment. Others relate sustainability to the ability to cut costs and inefficiencies within the organization. A few individuals believe that sustainability is a matter of human rights. So what exactly is sustainability?

Dreamworld’s owners, Ardent Leisure has developed a park that has accounted for all difficulties of sustainability despite the location and size of the amusement park. Dreamworld is a theme park situated in Coomera, near the east coast of Queensland. Due to its isolation, it is imperative to have effective sustainability methods to reserve the resources expended by the park’s energy demanding attractions. Sustainability will be the issue brought to light in this report, and a new ride will be implemented with all of the characteristics of being economically, environmentally and socially responsible. The management of the ride will be investigated in the report, including the legislations that govern sustainability.

Given all we’ve discussed about the ecologic condition of the planet now and if current consumption patterns continue tell me your views on whether you think Americans as a whole are moving toward a sustainable society. If not what are your views on one or two changes to these patterns that could improve potential for achieving a sustainable society.

I don’t have a junk drawer. I have a junk house. Not that you’d notice, since it’s always pristine. The problem lies in drawers, closets and attics--all out of mind and holding twenty-five years of stuff.

In a world that is focused on consumption, living sustainably means living against the grain. Our final lecture reflection studied different lifestyles that oppose traditional norms and embrace sustainability. Minimalism is a documentary on people who defy the idea that possessions bring happiness and choose to live with as little as possible. Toke Miller emphasises the importance of changing our ways, to see the world with kindness, love, and consciousness. Finally, Steve Mannell shares the story of the Ark in PEI which promotes a self-sufficient alternative to modern housing. By examining and changing the ways that we live our lives we can approach a way to live sustainably.

In the introduction to Sustainability, Christian R. Weisser explains that sustainability is the ability for an item or idea to be maintained long-term. Specifically, Weisser describes that sustainability is the related to the correlation between human society and environmental degradation. As Weisser puts it, “as communities grow, the environment often declines” this addresses the cause and affects the human society has on the world and how understanding and using sustainability can fix that problem. For example, Weisser gives the use of disposal of aluminum cans, and how human society has advanced to reuse these resources and apply this to improve the future. Weisser insists that not only does sustainability show the relation

One of the most vigorously debated topics is the issue of sustainability. These include climate change, overpopulation, pollution, and ignorance to the damage being done to the environment. The climate that all living things have come to rely upon is changing because of global warming. Today, sustainability has become a focal point and a significant part of life. Sustainability is defined as the ability to meet current environmental, ecological, economics, social and cultural needs without risking the ability of future generations to meet those same needs. What does the Best American Science Wtg. 2014 teach us about sustainability, and what makes the paradigm shift to a sustainable planet? These different authors explain with example how sustainability can be achieved and also the different points of views that exist. “TV as birth control,” by Fred Pearce, “Why the brain prefers paper,” by Ferris Jabrs, “Bringing them back to life,” by Carl Zimmer and “A race to save the orange by altering its DNA”, by Amy Harmon’s – reveals that cultural sustainability involves efforts to preserve the actual and evasive cultural elements of sociality such as heritage, educational opportunities and public policies, in way that promote environmental, economic and social sustainability.

Sustainability is a word that seems to be constantly popping up around us. But I suppose that’s to be expected when we live in a time period where sustainability is essential for our survival as our planet continues to fall down in a spiral of destruction, poverty and war. So why is sustainability such a difficult thing for people to do? Why doesn’t everybody make a little effort to make a big difference? I presume part of the reason is people don’t know how they can help. How can me, one person, in this 7 billion populated planet make a difference? I believe the first place to start is to be taught about the problems we face surrounding sustainability, or more correctly, the problems we are going to continue to face if we

When I was five years old I began school. In Kindergarden we learned basic things like letters, numbers, and how not to be fully engulfed in flames. For some reason, 2004 was the height of anti-fire education in Missouri and before I knew how to tie my shoes I knew that if I ever was ablaze, to cover my face, fall to my knees, and roll back and fourth. This is what my institution placed serious value upon and because I was a student of that institution I also placed serious value upon it. The same idea must be applied to a university's teaching of environmental sustainability. This is discussed in David Orr's "What is Education For?" Through choosing a curriculum a university chooses what it places value onto, by making the environment a priority it showcases to the future generations that environmental wellness is an important responsibility for them to take ownership.

Picture This! Imagine a world with Mother Nature not being endangered by us; representing the true beauty it has; whether it’s the smell of a flower, the sight of a cloudy day, or even the touch of a wild animal. Knowing the fact that I can make a positive change throughout my employment will have an impact on the world we live in today. At one point whether it’s your job or a career everybody wants a promotion. Cricket, cricket, cricket not the actual insect, but Cricket Wireless; “a prepaid wireless service provider in the United States that offers voice, text, and data (Welch, 2014)” has given me a chance to make something positive throughout our everyday lives. As a marketing manager for Cricket Wireless, I tend to go to events to inform people about the promotions we currently have. The purpose of this essay is to discuss the three main reasons why my employment can be helpful towards sustainability;

Sustainability is a topic that has become very important in recent years. Sustainability is defined as, “the ability to continue a defined behavior indefinitely.” ("Finding and Resolving the Root Causes of the Sustainability Problem", 2014)

Global sustainability is multi-faceted topic and is very complex. However, at its essence, global sustainability is defined as using your resources wisely today to give your children a better life tomorrow. It is the balance between using enough to develop right now but leaving enough for future generations. For example, if we were only looking at preserving the environment and not developing it, we might use none of the resources and leave them to be. But the problem with that is that then there is no resources for us to use. On the other hand, if we were just looking to develop the land, we would use all of our resources, but then there would be no more left for the future. Thus, I want our

In today’s global economy sustainability is very important; from the biological aspect to the industries they all play a role on the marine environment. As world population increases the demand of fish rises causing overfishing. Certain laws have been placed to limit the amount of wild fishing to reduce the risk of endangerment. To meet the demand of the population, fish farms are introduced. Pollution and health related issues are part of the challenges of fish farming. Sustainability also affects social areas such as beaches.

This essay will review two significant environmental experiences I have encountered exploring the influences of these my life and how these have altered my view on what is environmental sustainability.
