Sustainability 2.0

How I view sustainability now is similar to the way I did at the beginning of this course but has become much more of a realistic way to live my life. My definition has not really changed except for the fact that I now understand that the word sustainability might be too broad, or maybe its just that there are so many different things that go along with being sustainable one would think it to be too broad. I think that it is a good word to be used if you think about all the different things that are necessary to be considered living in a sustainable manner. Sustainability is a continuos cycle that never ends, it is not something that you simply get to and then stop. I really liked the video we watched about all the different projects that are attempting to copy-cat nature in order to make the world and businesses more sustainable. I also liked Jensen's article about decreasing the negativity and trying to increase positive out looks, I think that instead of looking at it as what am I giving up or loosing it should be more of how am I helping the bigger picture? I have truly enjoyed this class and have learned a lot, in the beginning I was very skeptical and after the life style project I have truly changed my life to more sustainable practices. Thanks everyone for your insights and good luck in life!
