I have a pet peeve about sustainability definitions which mention
"meeting the needs of the present" when we are already overconsuming the
carrying capacity of the planet now! I suggest folks become more
educated about each of our "ecological footprints" and the complete and
combined effects of our exorbinate life-styles.- Reply publically or
