Sustainability is the future - but not all sustainability is created equally.

We only have a finite amount of resources on our planet. But these resources are often exchanged for other resources - for example, cutting down trees and using carbon credits to balance out the impacts. 
This is weak sustainability - the idea that all resources are the same, and can be interchanged for each other.

In contrast, strong sustainability asks us to preserve our natural resources - if we extract too many resources from our ecosystems, they will struggle to recover. By relying on renewable resources and reducing our impacts, we can create a thrivable world where humanity lives in harmony with nature - now and into the future.

All our actions are connected through the THRIVE Framework. If you would like to find out more, visit us here: https://blog.strive2thrive.earth/thrive-framework-the-systemic-holistic-model/
