Sustainable Measures Driving Force/State/Response  Driving force (pressure, source) - activity that is causing a certain state or condition to exist  State (condition) - the condition that exists  Response (strategy, activities) - what is being done about it

State (condition or status) Response (strategy or action) Driving Force (pressure or cause)

Driving Force State Response Number of vehicle miles driven NOx concentration in mg/m 3 Percent inspected cars with high NOx emissions Number of single use/disposable goods purchased Acres of land for waste disposal/ landfill. Tons municipal solid waste recycled. Percent of watershed that is impervious Level of metals and organics in water supply reservoirs Number of storm water permits issued Pounds of toxics used Contaminant level of shellfish Number of shellfish beds closed

Lowell Center for Sustainable Production Indicator Hierarchy Level 1: Compliance/ Conformance Indicators Level 2: Material Use and Performance Indicators Level 3: Local Effect Indicators Level 4: Supply Chain and Product Life- cycle Indicators Level 5: Sustainable Systems Indicators

Sustainability Hierarchy Water Use Examples Level of water in stream compared to historic levels (Level 5) Annual water use by residents and industry (Level 2) Gallons of water used to take a shower (Level 2)

Sustainable Measures Sustainability Hierarchy Housing Examples  Number of building sites with permits (Level 1)  Number of housing starts (Level 2)  Number of units by type (single/multifamily) and price range (Level 3)  Percent of community land by usage type (residential, commercial, industrial, wetlands, working forest, agriculture, wilderness) (Level 5)
