Sustainability, Energy Reset, Green Economy and Resilient Future

We live in a world where our environmental footprint is growing. The demands of a modern lifestyle require us to be more aware of our impact on the planet. People must learn to be more conscious of their consumption.
The new era of sustainability is now becoming a dominant theme in all aspects of our businesses, communities, and living spaces. With its ever-evolving technologies, such as green finance, renewable energy, electric vehicles, and sustainable design and construction, this age is taking root in every aspect of our lives.
Sustainability is crucial for the future of our planet, and as a means of consumerism, we need to step up our game, or risk things going haywire.
“Sustainability” starts with a few basic questions. What does sustainability mean? What does it look like? What are the steps that will lead to sustainable living? What will happen when people begin to live more sustainably?
In this book, we will also examine the current transition from an economy dependent on fossil fuels to one dependent on solar energy, innovations in electric vehicles, development in green economy by investing in renewable energy sources; eco-friendly urban mobility; urban green spaces; and sustainable food systems. These green spaces require significant changes to the lifestyles of their residents.
But in reality, we already are consuming more than we can sustain. Every action we take, from shopping to flying to walking, contributes to environmental degradation. It doesn’t have to be this way. Everybody has the power to change the way we live and we all have a responsibility to help shift the needle. Everything we do matters. And even if you’re not ready to make drastic changes right now, there are plenty of things you can do today

Sustainable Living 101: What to Expect from Sustainability

It’s hard to turn on the news or pick up a newspaper without reading stories about our planet in peril.  Many years of industry and irresponsible management of Earth’s resources have led to major issues with pollution, toxic waste, and climate change.

How can we combat what’s happening to the globe?  Sustainable living is the answer that many people are turning to in order to make the world a healthier place.  But for many people, sustainable living seems like an unattainable lifestyle.

Before you become overwhelmed you should know that you can work toward sustainability in small steps.  It might help to really understand what sustainable living means.  In this chapter we’ll look at an overview of sustainable living and help you to see the big picture.

In future chapters we’ll look more in detail at specific aspects of sustainable living and what steps you can take to implement them into your lifestyle.  Before you can decide what’s right for you, it helps to know the basics.

A Philosophy for Life

Sustainable living is not a set of “rules” to follow.  Rather it’s a way of thinking that can help you to guide your life choices.  Those who choose sustainable living are often concerned about a variety of issues including:

Environmental toxins

Loss of natural resources

Saving money

Leaving a legacy for future generations

Humane treatment of animals

Pesticide-free food

Eating whole foods and avoiding chemicals in food

Keeping landfills to a minimum

Fresh, clean drinking water

Reducing dependency on corporate manufacturing

Living with little negative impact on the environment

While it’s difficult for one not to have any impact on the environment, sustainable living practices can help you to make sure you don’t leave a bigger footprint than you want to leave for future generations.

There are any benefits to sustainable living that can be felt long before you leave the Earth to future generations.  Your current health and happiness can be greatly affected by living these principles.  There are many elements of this lifestyle that can apply to you.

Improved Health

People who practice sustainable living often have improved health from eliminating excess toxins and processed products from their lives.  In Chapter 2 you’ll learn more about how this can be the best choice for a long, healthy life.

Food Production

People who practice sustainable living often produce some or all of their own food.  This component includes gardening and even maintaining livestock.  Producing your own food guarantees that you know the quality of your meals.

In Chapters 3 and 4 you’ll learn about producing your own food.  Whether you want to have a small garden or a larger farm, you’ll learn tips that fit your current situation and goals for lifestyle change.

Eliminating Waste

One of the key components of sustainable living is waste management.  You’ll want to completely use your resources and avoid the landfill.  With sustainable living practices, you’ll find that you can reuse many of your belongings, recycle them, and reduce your waste.

––––––––

This includes your consumption of energy as well.  You’ll find that there are many simple steps that can help you to reduce your energy consumption and waste.  We’ll discuss these methods in Chapter 5.
