2.1 Sustainability Definitions
What does sustainability mean? While we see theterm everywhere, everyone -- whether corporations, governments,foundations, individuals, or NGOs -- uses it differently.
For some, the definition lies in theBrundtland Commission call "to satisfy the needs of presentgenerations without sacrificing the ability of future generationsto satisfy their needs."
 For others, the definition lies in thetriple bottom line: the three E's of environment, equity, andeconomics.
Or the 3 P's of people, planet, andprofits.
