Climate Change Action Plan

Why is Sustainability important Institute for Sustainable Cities definitions - "A sustainable community is one that is economically, environmentally, and socially healthy and resilient. Sustainable communities manage human, natural and financial resources to meet current needs while ensuring that adequate resources are equitably available for future generations. 

Why is Sustainability important A sustainable community seeks: A better quality of life for the whole community without compromising the wellbeing of other communities. Healthy ecosystems Effective governance supported by meaningful and broad-based citizen participation. Economic security

Why is Sustainability important The Fourth Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) states: it is a greater than a 90 percent certainty that emissions of heat-trapping gases from human activities have caused “most of the observed increase in globally averaged temperatures since the mid-20th century.”[1]
