Sustainability is a societal goal that broadly relates to the ability of people to safely co-exist on Earth over a long time. Specific definitions of sustainability are difficult to agree on and have varied in the literature and over time.[2][1] The concept of sustainability can be used to guide decisions at the global, national, and individual levels (e.g. sustainable living).[3] Sustainability is commonly described as having three dimensions (also called pillars): environmental, economic, and social.[1] Many publications state that the environmental dimension (also called "planetary integrity" or "ecological integrity") is the most important,[4][5] and, in everyday usage, "sustainability" is often focused on countering major environmental problems, such as climate change, loss of biodiversity, loss of ecosystem services, land degradation, and air and water pollution.[6]
