sustainability planning in Forest Management, Wildlife Conservation and Rangeland Management lies in ensuring natural resources serve the present as well as future population. However, it is impossible to convince the population that is being driven by economic needs to abide by sustainable policies without concrete reasons; this brings in the notion of science-based decision making. Just in case a significant portion of the resources have been destroyed before the enforcement of the sustainable policies

Introduction The paper is aimed at identifying the definition of sustainability and studying several general principles relevant to civil engineering. A case study of the regeneration of Mossley Mill in Northern Ireland which covers the rebuilding and reuse technology will be given below for detailed research. This kind of technology is not only a typical solution which meets the concept of sustainability, but also a classical paradigm in the civil engineering area. It is further suggested that the

Sustainability is a word that can be defined in many different ways, according to the world view of an individual. I personally define sustainability as a term that allows an individual or a population to use natural resources without degrading their ability to regenerate to provide for the future generation. The term itself is too problematic because it does justify the limit of consumption. I strongly disagree that a college student can live sustainably in the middle of America. Living a sustainable

As a transitive verb of sustainability, the word ‘sustain’ was first known be used in the 13th century and origin from Latin means to hold up (sus- means up, tenēre means to hold) (Merriam-Webster Dictionary, n. d.). Sustainability has first been quoted in 1953, and is defined in the Oxford English Dictionary (2017) as ‘the quality of being sustainable at a certain rate or level.’ Fleiszer et al. (2015) argue that sustainability has been identified using varied terminology. For example, continuous

Sustainability With the increase in global warming, sustainability and resilience plays a very important role. Sustainability is usually defined as meeting “the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs” (Hudson 2013). Resilience is the ability of a system to withstand disturbances and continue to function in a sustainable manner (Tagtow et al., 2014). The office of sustainability brings the SF State community together to work towards a more

are the cause and effect. Crudely put: sustainable construction is facilitated by the construction industry, and yet the construction industry has the greatest effect of the core factors of sustainable construction in terms of ecology, social and economic ways. To enable ambitions and targets listed within white papers such as the Sustainable Development Plan (2005), the Strategy for Sustainable Construction (2008) and the Climate Change Bill (2009) there must be a continuation of the legacy of

exploitation of land as a scarce resource. This paper compares and contrasts land administration systems in Netherlands and Tanzania. It evaluates how the different socio-economic situation of both countries has influenced the development and implementation of land administration systems. The findings of this study show that socio-economic factors have considerable impacts in the development and management of land administration systems. It concludes that in order for poor countries such as Tanzania to
