Sustainable

"Sustainability" relates to the quality of life in a community, and is frequently used as meaning not taking more from a resource than is replenshed naturally. In a broader sense, sustainability pertains to the economic, social and environmental systems that make up a community as a whole, and whether all three are working in concert to provide a healthy, productive, meaningful life for all community residents, present and future.
