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 - Anne O'Donovan

Sustainability is an ideal which consists of the sum of each generation’s altruism for the next. The altruistic favour in this case would be the lifestyle change necessary to live within a means which would allow the next generation to survive at the same standard of living.
