Sustainability is perhaps the only word that imbibes healthy human activity in totality.
Its simplest definition is the capacity to endure.
In ecological sense, it explains how biological systems such as wetlands and forests can be productive while remaining diverse.
Sustainability of ecosystem shall provide goods and services to all flora and fauna until eternity.
Man is totally covered by environmental, social and economic dimensions, which keeps him healthy, prosperous and contributive.
Economic activity has ecological and social consequences.
Health, prosperity, culture and social life are all affected by ecological economics.
This explains how the entire activity of man depends upon sustainability.
A sustainable environment has to be appropriate for everybody.
For being appropriate, it has to be equitable.
The circle completes with as an equitable society shall only be sustainable.
A Wenn diagram will depict the area of economy encircled by the expanse of society and both are within the encompass of environment.
In other words society and economics are constrained by environmental limitations.
The reverse is obviously desirable.
The entire framework of sustainability stands on several disciplines and fields.
It has to be researched and worked out on time and space coordinates of environment, social and economic considerations.
The sustainability of earth has to remain quite potent and efficient to shoulder the sustainability of individual, individual good and services, individual's lifestyle, occupation and behavior, neighborhood, society, country, ecosystem, economic progress and it should have the capability of both forward and backward progression.
The science of sustainability is parallel to the Newton's third law of motion.
It says that every action has its equal and opposite reaction.
If human activities keep on destroying biophysical resources then it will boomerang as climate change, greenhouse effect and global warming.
If man mends its way and puts his heart in repairing the ecosystem and share the good and services equitably and appropriately, the environment shall sustain until eternity.
The need of the hour is a healthy environment management.
The primary concern shall be demand management.
Human resources must not be squandered.
Wastage is a signpost of superfluous grabbing of resources of goods and services.
Waste is not a waste.
What is a waste for one is a raw material for recycling another usable product for some other.
Waste is brown gold.
Renewable energy sources must replace much of the non-renewable energy resources in good time.
Sustainability is social security.
Sustainability is social justice.
Sustainability is peace.
