Sustainability

What is sustainability?
Sustainability is about getting our needs without damaging the environment. Using resources that can be renewed is also part of sustainability. We must recycle to sustain our environment. If all the resources are endangered, then soon it'll be extinct.

Why is it important?
it is important because if we use all the resources, then we will not have anything for the next generation. We must meet our needs to survive and that will only happen if our environment is clean and healthy. If all the resources are over, then we all probably be extinct.
