a. Why do we need sustainability?
Sustainability is the key to a better future. Humans rely on natural resources for business,
activities, and survival. Ignoring sustainability can lead to the exhaustion of natural resources.
Sustainability is important to study even if you aren't an environmental science major.

activities. How will you prevent the global issue that is the climate change to sustain the
environment?
Climate Change is the defining issue of our time and we are at a defining moment. From shifting
weather patterns that threaten food production, to rising sea levels that increase the risk of catastrophic
flooding, the impacts of climate change are global in scope and unprecedented in scale. Without drastic
action today, adapting to these impacts in the future will be more difficult and costly.
c. Why is environmental sustainability important to
society?
Sustainable actions help make a real difference in society. Being committed to sustainability will reduce
your carbon footprint and the amount of toxins released into the environment, making it safe. When we
focus on sustainability, the entire world benefits and gets to live in clean, more healthy living conditions.
