Basics of Sustainability: Learn in Simple Language




Basics of Sustainability: Learn in Simple Language

We all care for the environment, but we may not be fully aware of the environmental problems around us, or, if we are, how to get started to become part of the solution is always a challenge.

To find the solution it is very essential to understand the problem in its entirety. As said by Systems Thinker Peter Senge, 'Today's problems are the Yesterday's solutions'. This statement always makes me think about the problems we all are facing in the current times, from pollution to population, from plastic pollution to degradation of ecosystems, from increased life style diseases to psychological issues we are facing, all are somewhat result of some kind of solutions we created to avoid some problems in the past. The hastily made decisions or policies formed with short term narrow thinking has led us to the newer and increasing problems.

So what is the solution? Though the question is complex and dynamic, we need to understand the problem at the core through broad perspective.

In this course, we will try to understand Sustainability in its entirety, through multiple examples and interactive activities.

Below are the concepts we will learn in this course:

  • Sustainability Definition through Example

  • Three Pillars of Sustainability

  • Triple Bottom Line

  • Carrying capacity

  • Ecological Footprint

  • Benefits of Sustainability for Businesses

  • Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs)

  • Action Guide for Environmentally Conscious Lifestyle

This will help you to make your own informed choices about your own life, and potentially make tangible differences on a broader global scale as well!

Sustainability is not just good to know, it's a must to know in this 21st century.
