This blog was originally based on a course ran by Professor Nick Gray of the Trinity Centre for the Environment at Trinity College Dublin who also wrote a textbook for the module Facing up to global warming: What is going on and what you can do about it. Now working as an independent consultant, Nick continues to work in the area of environmental sustainability and looking at ways of making a difference without recriminations or guilt. Saving the planet is all about living sustainably.

Personal Definition of Sustainability - Jasmine Patel-Bolger

I believe living sustainably means to stop unnecessarily abusing the earth’s resources. I don’t think this means depriving ourselves of a happy life but rather to teach us how to live and be happy without damaging the earth. It’s an opportunity to take a pause from consuming and just live.
