sustainability
Definition
""Meeting humanity's needs without harming future generations. It's an old ideal, broadly endorsed by economic development experts, environmentalists, and human rights activists, but formerly too touchy-feely for many American business leaders. Now, however, it's at the top of the agenda of growing numbers of U.S. CEOs, especially younger ones."" -- Source: Beyond the Green Corporation, Business Week, Jan 29, 2007, p 52
