What is environmental sustainability?

But this article will focus on environmental sustainability. Sustainability is one of the most important concepts when it comes to protecting the environment. Most environmental problems – from overfishing to air pollution – come from using natural resources unsustainably.

What is sustainability & why is it important?

Sustainability is the practice of using natural resources responsibly, so they can support both present and future generations.

A sustain-able activity is able to be sustained without running out of resources or causing harm. If something is unsustainable, it means it’s using up resources faster than they’re being replaced. Eventually the resources will run out and the activity won’t be able to carry on. The idea of sustainability is used in a few different ways.
