Busy thinking about sustainability

Sustainability principle states that our actions today should not adversely impact the ability of future generations and other living beings to sustain themselves. Sustainability is a path that each of us needs to own to successfully tackle the climate crisis together. Everybody has a role. The time to act is NOW. This blog chronicles my learning and adventure. I hope that readers will find inspiration through these journals to adopt a few more sustainability practices into their own lives.
