Why become sustainable?

Compared to many people in the world we have a great lifestyle. But what does that really mean? If it means that our children will inherit a polluted world, or be unable to enjoy the things we take for granted right now, is it really so great? It's time to take a rain check and make sure that what we do now is really sustainable.

Becoming sustainable means:

Thinking about our priorities and actions
Making small changes - lots of people making small changes has a big effect
Trying out new ways of doing things
Working together
Taking responsibility
Sharing responsibility
Feeling good about ourselves and our communities
