We are all inhabitants of planet Earth. We wish the best for our children, and we are the ones responsible for achieving it. We can do it. To us, sustainability means “the satisfaction of present needs without compromising the ability of future generations to satisfy their own needs.” Let’s all be “Sustentators.”
Global warming, greenhouse gases, deforestation, the carbon cycle, and climate change are big concepts that are being discussed more and more these days. Let’s not fool ourselves —this is our reality and these things affect us. They affect each and every one of us.
We need to make a change, a change that requires nothing less than modifying the way we interact wth this planet that we live on. Up to now, we have been using resources and non-renewable energy sources without a second thought, altering ecosystems and modifying forested areas without measuring the consequences. It’s time to take responsibility for our actions and work towards a sustainable future.
There are different levels of action: from the measures taken by large intergovernmental organizations, governmental policies, and municipal laws, to the personal habits of each and every one of us. Your actions matter. Our actions matter. Let’s make a difference.
How should you begin?
First of all, we suggest that you educate yourself about the origin of the problem by visiting The Basics of Ecology.
In Paths to Sustainability you will find the major areas of action that will enable us to make the necessary changes. Finally, Where Do I Begin? is a guide that will show you how every one of your daily habits counts, and that together we can make a significant difference.
At the same time, the development of new technologies is key to learning, managing, and optimizing the use of renewable energy. In our blog you will find the latest innovations in technology, large scale initiatives, avant- garde Sustentators, and household recommendations for our path to sustainability.
Your support is crucial. We believe that this path will bring you a lot of satisfaction. We invite you to comment on our articles and submit information that will help us to be Sustentators.
Our mission is to educate, raise awareness, and act. Welcome to our guide to the path toward sustainability.
Regards,
The Sustentator Team
