Routes to Sustainability
Home Up Companies and SD Project illustrating SD ... Guidelines on SD
Sustainability initiatives are now gaining pace as more companies make statements, describe their values and indicate their approach to sustainable development. BUT good intentions need to be followed by action ..... and results that are more sustainable There are several reasons why the interest in sustainability is growing rapidly, in particular to:
  • safeguard and strengthen the organisation's reputation develop behaviour that is socially and environmentally responsible comply with national laws or corporate standards - whichever is more challenging attract and retain high quality people who seek employment where personal and corporate values are aligned keep ahead of competitors or, in some cases, transform the business along new lines achieve high standards of corporate governance
Routes to sustainability are now provided by various organisations, each with its own characteristics. Supplementary pages provide examples of what companies are doing, statements they are making, projects and guidelines for becoming more sustainable:

A quickstudy outline of sustainable development for planners and policy-makers, with extensive web references for more in-depth information on each topic.
http://www.sustainable-city.org/document/primer/
By Beryl Magilavy Sustainable development, which includes community development, environmental protection, natural resource conservation, and local economic development, is becoming more widely practiced in Europe, while lagging behind as a US development strategy. Since sustainable development planning requires civic planners and private developers to understand a number of new disciplines and to address their interconnections, it has been difficult for working professionals to gain an overview and access to specific implementation strategies. The author presents an outline of the key features of sustainable development that should be considered in new development, with extensive web references for more in-depth information on each topic.

Introduction Contributors Sustainability of Forests: An Attempt at a Biological Interpretation by Professor Dr. Peter Schutt Sustainable Development, Sustainable Yield Forestry, and the Meaning of Life by Jordan S. Tanz The Postmodern Forest: Images Differing by Dr. Steven Taubeneck Sustainable Development: What Do We Owe to Future Generations? by Dr. Thomas Hurka INTRODUCTION The conference was organized around the idea that sustainable development and competition are in some sense competing visions of our global future. Nowhere is this potential conflict more salient than in the forestry industry. Canada, and B.C. in par ticular, shares with Germany a concern for the fate of forests and for the industries based on forest resources. This conference sought to bring together academics from both Canadian and German universities to explore the ethical challenges associated with these competing visions. Those attending the conference had the opportunity to hear talks from a wide variety of specialties, ranging from botany to cultural studies to philosophy. Of the talks given, four were developed into papers to be included in this publication. Special thanks go to Dr. Schutt for making his speaking notes available for this purpose.

WHAT IS "SUSTAINABILITY" OR"SUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENT?"
What is "sustainable development?" Science can now roughly define what is sustainable for our global human society. One definition, from The Natural Step™, states: In a sustainable society, nature is not subject to systematically increasing:
-Concentrations of substances extracted from the Earth's crust,
-Concentrations of persistent, toxic substances produced by society,
-Degradation by physical means,
-And, peoples' capacities to meet their needs are not systematically undermined. Put in more positive terms, in a "sustainable" world natural and human systems will be regenerative: increasing in health, resilience, diversity and complexity. It is a world that is getting better all the time for all its creatures. In this context, "sustainable development" refers to the many tools and processes we can use to move toward such a world, such as efficient energy use; "green" building; socially responsible investing; simple living; mixed use, inter-modal urban development, etc.

Easy Earth Day Action...
They say everyday is Earth Day, and the Earth Day Network is working around the year to make that the case.
Here's an easy petition they run, to keep the importance of clean energy and global warming in front of our representatives:
You know how we always talk about how politicians aren’t doing anything to stop climate change? NOW is the time for us to make them change their ways. Earth Day Network has drafted a petition demanding that Congress act to solve this crisis, and to solve it fairly. Join me in signing up Earth Day Network's online petition, at: http://salsa.democracyinaction .org/o/1807/petition.jsp Just takes a second, and gives you that patriotic feeling, knowing your participating in our democratic system...and trying to keep it alive.

We all need to help look after the environment now and for the future. Ecologically sustainable development (ESD) can help us protect the environment.
Australia's governments have worked together to develop the National Strategy for Ecologically Sustainable Development and the Intergovernmental Agreement on the Environment. Government is committed to implementing the Strategy throughout Australia to improve environmental management. The Queensland Government is acting to ensure that ESD becomes a part of all its programs and is adopted by the general community. The Commonwealth Government and State Governments worked together to produce the Intergovernmental Agreement on the Environment to provide more detail on implementing ESD in Australia.

Welcome to the Research Institute for Managing Sustainability (RIMAS)
Sustainable development is an important challenge for our time - one which we at the Vienna University of Economics and Business Administration wish to thoroughly analyse. Here, the topic is addressed from a variety of angles including Corporate Sustainability, Corporate Social Responsibility, Good Governance, innovation research, and sustainable consumption. A total of ten institutes and departments of the Vienna University of Economics and Business Administration deal with economic, environmental and social aspects of sustainable development. In the late 1990s, these activities were consolidated and reinforced in interdisciplinary projects with the establishment of a Research Centre for Managing Sustainability, which in 2005 became the Research Institute for Managing Sustainability. We hope that our website will provide you with necessary background information on the topics we are dealing with and the projects and publications we are or have been working on. Besides describing our capabilities, it also introduces our team and our network. Moreover you can find information on the FP6 EU project EASY-ECO, which offers conferences and training possibilities regarding evaluation in the context of sustainable development.
