Sustainability

Sustainability has been a huge topic in class this semester. To be completely honest, I didn't even really know the exact definition of something being "sustainable" until taking this colloquium course. Sustainability is the capacity to endure. Without sustainability, no community or society can thrive. It is a big responsibility. On the ECHO trip I learned a bunch about sustainability and how people all around the world are learning new and different ways in order to prosper and be sustainable. Here in the U.S we should all start to think of better, more sustainable ways to get by. Without sustainability, generations cannot continue to grow and live. Ways of living more sustainable can be from using more green houses, or even more "eco friendly" cars. If we start going green a little bit more, it will probably be more beneficial in the long run for years to come.
